Reporters are human beingstoo
SWEAT SOCKS
by Heather Mcllwraith
Why are some people afraid they'll get
negative press? What is it about news-
papers and reporters present at some
meetings that perpetuates a feeling of
paranoia among committee members and
any other people present? Is everyone
afraid hat they 11 say something that might
shock other people or even bring about
repercussions?
These questions don't characterize
everyone. There are people who do speak
out, but the one's who hide behind the guise
of formality who are particularly irritating to
the reporter.
There are some people who convey the
feeling they're trying to hide something.
Most time they're not, and their caution is
almost childishly ridiculous.
But most trying is the fact that these
people are most often the ones who have
previously wanted so much from the press.
Some people are so co-operative with the
press when- they need something. That's
especially true when some event needs to be
promoted or when something mildly heroic
or honorable has been achieved. At Sha
point, when things are running smoothly
those same people can't be open enough
with the press. Invitations to any and every
meeting and/or function are issued and
coverage is expected, if not demanded.
That's fine, but there seems to -be a
sudden breakdown in the communications
system when things cease to run so
smoothly. it seems nobody wants the press
around, no one wants to make a statement •
and that too is understandable. After all
you have to look after number one. right?
What bothers me is not so much the
paranoia of reporters, as the lack of faith in
their capacity to be human, We are human
you know.
1 realize the press has for a long time been
mistrusted by the public. I realize there've
been times when people have been burnt.
that the newspaper has presented a bad
image of itself to the public. 1 can
understand people's skepticism. But how
deep does that skepticism run.
What i can't understand is how -that same
attitude can exist tri a small town like
Seaforth. Sure, I grew up with it in
Kitchener. but 1 was of the opinion things
might be different in a small town.
in defense of the majority of reporters --
we do have the capacity to be human, There
are some of us who feel capable of drawing
the line between reporting the facts fairly
and reporting the facts with a maliciousness
that could injure someone or the reputation
of a volunteer organization.
In a small town, reporters are more
accountable to the public than they might be
in a large city. Thus, 1 feel we are more
compassionate, more fair in our reporting.
What hurts most is that we are still
perceived as ogres who'll turn on anyone for
the sake of a story.
The truth is - getting a story is important -
but there are some of•us who know how to
use discretion. i only wish people would
judge me as the person 1 am, instead of by
the person 1 might become should 1 conform
to the stereotyped version of the "report-
er."
You never know. you may find out we can
really work together, at all levels. Commun-
ication and co-operation are supposedly
two-way streets. Sometimes I feel they're
only one way, and that I'm violating a traffic
law by going the wrong way.
