Morphology
The meaning 'to make something known to the public' is directly derivable from combining 'bring' (to carry/produce) with 'out' (to the outside) — i.e., moving something from hidden/inside into public view. This spatial-to-abstract composition is a common phrasal-verb pattern and exists in many languages, so a B1 learner who knows the constituents will very likely infer the sense.
Etymology
Bring out comes from the simple picture of carrying something from inside to outside, like taking plates out of a cupboard; so it means 'take something out of a container'.
