This clue might be a double definition.

'journalist's announcement' is the first definition.

'create awe' is the second definition.

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for impress that I've seen before include "Produce a strong, lasting impression on" , "Inspire respect, stamp" , "gain effect" , "Leave a mark or stamp" , "Influence - conscript - stamp" .)
