Comments on: “My 1st week as a Sunday Times intern” and extra scoop had to delete a post! http://www.themediaslut.com/2008/05/1028 Everything media!

I knew the folks back at www.itjournoasia.com and, boy, did they have a hard time trying to interview the SPH journalists. ITJourno Asia reported on the IT media scene in the ASEAN region. I guess it could be the fear that most Singaporeans have when they are interviewed that their words might be twisted or it might be used against them.

Few people seem to appreciate the efforts needed to get a really good story, and the hoops that journalists need to jump through.

Better to tread on the side of caution, especially when I'm still new to the organisation. The blog post seems rather harmless to me when I wrote it, but perhaps too revealing about how SPH operates.

Back then, when I did street interviews or straw polls for my stories, most people didn't want to be quoted either.
