you might ask, “Why do you think environmental protection is important in America?” 17
●Hit the streets with confidence. 18 Say, “Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic.” This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.
●Move on to the next person if someone tells you she is not interested in talking on camera. Don't get discouraged.
● 19 Each interview that you get on the street shouldn't be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from interview to interview, you are getting a variety of answers. If everyone is giving you the same answer, you won't be able to use it. A safe number of interviews to conduct is about six to ten. 20
●If your news station or school requires interviewees to sign release forms to appear on the air, don't leave work without them. A. Limit your time.
B. As you approach people, be polite.
C. If you don't own a camera, you can buy one.
D. For new reporters, this can seem like a challenging task. E. To get good and useful results, ask them the same question. F. That number of interviews should give you all the answers you need.
G. With a question like this, you will get more than a ＂Yes＂ or ＂No＂ reply.
