Repoerters on the phone can very brusque indeed. A hint of the arrogance that shapes the news. I'm not kidding. I've had the same experience as you with newspapers in almost every major city I've ever lived in. It's part of the culture. Journalist, like school teachers, live to inform you....and trying to tell them anything is a waste of time unless they already see you as a "voice" they should listen to. If you are a "voice", the behaviour is typically polite, civil and very friendly.Steve Withershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04221815213521767405noreply@blogger.com
