How to write a press release announcing my own appointment?
I'm working on my first Press Release and the challenge I'm having is that I should really be part of the announcement.
Is it acceptable to say .. "Acme Co. has appointed Y as its new marketing manager..." and then have the Media Contact be Y?
It seems a little strange to me but then most PR are from larger companies where its not difficult to put somebody else as the Media Contact.

Is Y not the media contact for all purposes?
If so, then you should write "AcmeCo has appointed Y as its new marketing manager. Y will also serve as AcmeCo's Media Contact. For more information, please reach out to him/her at...."
If Y is not the media contact normally, then don't use that wording. "AcmeCo has appointed Y as its new marketing manager. Please reach out to Y at.... for all your Acme Marketing needs."
