Sure, they are press-whoring in a way, but if that is what PRWEB picks up as news, it says as much about the consumer as the producer.
Yes you are right. As long as whoever the release is sent to sees it as interesting or whatever, they can print it.

But also the thing that sucks about press releases is that they can also be modified. Medias can take whatever they want out of the press release so sometimes things are left out or the wording is altered.
