The DO’S Your homework: Know your topic.

Ensure that you are the right person for the interview

Publish their interpretation of what they believe the facts to be and go with what they have.

Find out who will do the interview and where it will be done (their studio or your place of work.)

Decide on one or two messages and make sure you know them well.

Page 36: Public Affairs Find the Story- Get the Story- Tell the Story

Find the Story/ Get the Story/ Tell the Story

The DO’S Use colourful language, simple words and easy-to-

understand comparisons,

Correct any false premise, seize the moral high ground.

Think of an interview as an opportunity to get your message across.

Ask yourself, “What if they did this story without me?”

Page 37: Public Affairs Find the Story- Get the Story- Tell the Story

Find the Story/ Get the Story/ Tell the Story

The DON’Ts

Use jargon or patronizing language. Use one-word answers. Repeat a reporter’s question. Ever use NO COMMENT. If you don’t know,

say, “I don't know,” and offer to find the information.

EVER LIE.REMEMBER:

H Give HONEST answers and be direct.O Use this as an OPPORTUNITY to pass

your message, expand your answer.W Use colourful language to prove or illustrate your WHOLE POINT.S SELL IT, make the reporter/audience feel

good, then stop talking.
