déclinaison

French to English Other Journalism
I am translating a slide presentation on a multinational’s action plan for being more proactive, improving its public relations and public image, and increasing its visibility in a certain jurisdiction. One slide suggests an op-ed or an in-depth interview in a specific newspaper “avec déclinaisons dans les magazines et journaux du groupe ABC”. Another bullet on the same slide reads “avec déclinaisons dans les magazines et les émissions de télévision produites par XYZ TV”. Any help on the word “déclinaison” in this context would be much appreciated. Thanks.

if you look in the glossaries under "décliner" you'll see that this one is an old old chestnut

Leveraging across other media, as when the advert in the glossy magazine depicting the Citrault Himgane converted into a transformer robot recalls the animation of the Citrault Himgane robot doing .... what DID it do? ... on the TV advert.

agree Alison Sabedoria (X) : Not synonymous, but clearly the effect intended (and please can I have some of whatever you're on this morning?!)

I'm not on anything. Maintaining good humour to combat the pain of tendonitis in my best ... er, better typing arm.
