Honest and accurate
VICTOR NOIR (“Honest PR”, last issue) gets my approach to the job right — I’m a long-standing NUJ member after all — but the devil really is in the, albeit amusing, detail!
After gales hit Cumbria, blowing lorries over and killing one driver, GMTV actually asked, “Neil, how is it where you are?”
Having never claimed to be on the scene I responded: “Well I’m in a hotel in London and it’s pretty blowy outside but it’s not as bad as it is in Cumbria,” before proceeding to tell them exactly what the situation was up there and what the Highways Agency was doing about it.
A bit different to Noir suggesting I told GMTV I didn’t know what was going on?
