Television ‘doorstep’ interviews
This is most people’s worst nightmare. You emerge from your building to be greeted by a horde of reporters yelling questions at you and a bunch of cameramen pointing their lenses straight at you and chasing you as you try to escape.
We’ve lost count of the number of ‘doorstep’ interviews we’ve conducted for real over the years, but we think our journalistic experience leaves us well placed to offer you a survival guide to the ‘doorstep’.
The areas we cover include:
- How to emerge from the media scrum with dignity
- How not to comment without saying ‘no comment’
- How to take control of the situation and make it work for you
