Answer
Here are two examples on how you would cite a press release in APA format.
American Psychological Association. (2010). Today's superheroes send wrong image to boys, say researchers [Press release]. Retrieved from http://www.apa.org/news/press/releases/2010/08/macho-stereotype-unhealthy.aspx
The White House, Office of the Press Secretary. (2010). Administration officials continue travel across the country holding "Recovery Summer" events, project site visits [Press release].
