Journalists Covering Sports

Trying to sound knowledgeable about sports despite having no athletic ability

Journalists Covering Food Trends

Balancing between the latest food crazes and personal health goals
I went to cover a hot wings challenge, and they asked me to join in. I declined, saying I had a sensitive palate. Translation: my stomach is more sensitive than a teenager at a Taylor Swift concert. I stick to reporting on spice levels rather than experiencing them.

Journalists Covering Technology

Asking a politician a straightforward question is like trying to high-five a ghost—it just goes right through them. I'm thinking of starting a new support group for journalists: "Hi, my name is Dave, and I haven't received a clear answer in three press conferences.

Journalists Reporting on Celebrity Gossip

Balancing the line between juicy details and respecting privacy
