StreetTalk: Meet The Press
Asked at the Monterey County Herald in Ryan Ranch
Thursday, December 2, 2004
Q: In light of the retirement of Tom Brokaw and Dan
Rather: What qualities do you look for when searching for a
news source?
Follow-up: Who is your favorite journalist?
Sukh Purewal
Staff Writer | Santa Cruz
A: Neutrality, which is something that you don’t really get from network news stations. I like middle-of-the-road news sources like CNN. I prefer NPR.Hometown Writer: Calvin Trillin of The New Yorker.
Andreas von Bubuoff
Intern | Santa Cruz
A: Balance. Give me the information and don’t comment on it. Comments should be separate and labeled as such.
Unfair Decision: I have no favorite. There are a lot of good journalists.
Judy Isacoff
Night City Editor | Seaside
A: Accuracy. I want to make sure the information is correct and true. Reliability is also important as is reputation.
Law and Order: Edna Buchanan, police reporter for the Miami Herald.
