Redirect query string to root

I have tried numerous variations of redirects, rewrites conditions and rules based on research and although I know I have a lot to learn with redirects, I am really struggling to figure out how to redirect a query string to my root directory :/

I need to redirect http://www.stapletondenver.com/news/press_detail.asp?pressReleaseID=10 to http://www.stapletondenver.com

Again, I've tried a few variations including below:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING}  ^/news/press_detail.asp?pressReleaseID=10$
RewriteRule (.*)  /?  [R=301,L]

Am I on the right track and/or what am I doing wrong? All and any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Try:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING}  ^pressReleaseID=10$
RewriteRule ^/?news/press_detail\.asp$  /?  [R=301,L]

The %{QUERY_STRING} variable is only the query string, not any part of the URI.
