May I suggest: Be more specific in your statement!

Something like "if you wandered in here from the pressrelease <backlink>,
that list is incomplete and may be out of date, click on the globe for a
complete list"

Journalists aren't always the greatest at connecting dots and drawing
inferences, especially if they are rushed. Do their homework for them (this
is a special case of "don't do people's homework for them" :-) ) as if you
don't, you get burned. That's been my experience.
