A couple of people to put out press releases would do the job.
I think it's a fair numnber. Fedorcio's explanation was a reasonable expectation of the need for such people. I would much rather that civillian communications experts liaised with the press and others, to allow police officers do their jobs. I would imagine that if a police officer is taken away from investigating or preventing crime, to deal with reporters and the like, it could mean that they don't get their jobs done.
