Journalists - what's your worst experience of a press officer? (Braces self for slew of press officers complaining about journalists)
-
-
This tweet is the problem with a mainstream media more interested in sensationalism rather than decent hard grafting well informed news.
-
Doing a story in spite of a press officer is not sensationalism. It's refusing to take instruction from authority, which is what hard-grafting and well-informed journalists do every day.
-
Bollocks you're trying to justify malicious journalism you wouldn't see it this way because you are part of the institutionalised issue
-
What is malicious about refusing to be told by a press officer that it's 'not a story'?
-
It's arrogant, crass and rude tbh the reason I put my reporting days behind me was because it's a toxic industry that is full of egos who put their own self importance before news
-
Yeah I notice you still haven't answered any of my questions. You must have been a great reporter.
-
Nothing wrong with refusing to be told by a PO that there's no story and investigating yourself. What's wrong is JHB turning something into a story when she says herself, "I always make sure that it turns into a story even if there wasn't much of one to start with."
