I am sure that maybe once in your life, some reportes ask you something, in a store, or in a street, they make just theyr work...will you answer to some questions if he ask you?
You will be agree for 5 minutes to talk in a front of a camera, and after to see you on TV , to news , for your opinion about something?
You are shy? or relax, to talk in a front of a camere if somebody will tell you that in the evening your imagine will apair to a show in the evening?
Or you just refuse and go away, withaut explanations?

This question is easy to answer because it once happened to me. My answer is that I shooed him and his camera (in fact there were two of them). Idon´t like many of the things reporters do. I believe one has a right to one´s privacy. If someone wants to interview me, he must adsk me first, not just impose his precense and the camera

Journalism is my major so therefore I know how hard it actually is to get random individuals off the street to talk to you. Many people don't want their lives and their opinions broadcasted because of how some people will react to them.
But I have been randomly interviewed by a reporter beforehand. I go to Virginia Tech and so one time last year when we got about 8 inches of snow they did this huge broadcast about how we had school all day long while all the schools around us didn't and on my way back from class I got stopped and answered questions about going to class in the snow and whether or not I felt we should of had classes canceled etc.

I will make sure by asking them first, whether it's a live show or not. If it's a live show, i think i will reject them if i feel i'm not on confident mode. But it could depends on what actually the show is. If they asking me about something i like too, then i think i can enjoy the camera shoot. Actually it happened to me more than once. And so far i enjoyed it. It's a proudness to be appear on the TV show.

Unfortunately, There's no way i am gonna answering about anything regarding me or personal life. but if it's regarding to issues of the country or a issue problem in the country, i can say a few words, but no more. when it comes to my personal life, that is considered private. or simply, on that i can just go away and never say a word

Well It doesn't matter to me where reporter ask me some questions but the only thing that matters to me is that his questions should be related to some sensible topic and not something very weird.
Second thing it should not be a live telecast so that I can watch myself On TV.
Third thing is that I should be well dressed so that my interview appears descent and good enough to watch.

Like many others I would have to say, It depends on the question or reason at hand. If I have an opinion that I would like heard then sure I would do it, however I dont like public speeches as I get very nervous. So it would have to be something that really interests me otherwise leave me alone and ask someone else.
