"What's the mood there?" - from London
"F***** if I know . I've been standing on a hotel roof all day but my fixer says it's a bit tense...." would be the honest answer most of the time.
LoL. If I may presume to suggest an addition:
'... but here's my personal opinion and my employer's favoured line anyway...'
Cut back to see whoever is on researcher speed dial and/or within walking distance of studio to then add authoritative 'objective' commentary to authoritative 'objective' reporting.
Worth every penny... I'm sure.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
