Over-reporting

[Shutpa]

Sadly, two young girls discovered the body of a kayaker washed up on a beach in Aberdeenshire "close to the land on which billionaire Donald Trump is proposing to build a luxurious golf resort" (local newspaper quote". The reporter interviewed: an oil worker who arrived on the scene; a police spokesman; the coastguard; a man from the Aberdeen Met Office;a local resident; the Chairman of the Aberdeen Kayak Club; the local Lib Dem councilor, and (today) a Community Council member.

They did not interview the two girls who found the body.

They did not interview the two girls who found the body.

The reason for that may be they were too distressed to talk to invasive media people

I'm aware of that BG. My point is that they went completely OTT in the number of others that they did interview!
