In this episode of The Media Landscape, I delve into yet another media interview blunder, this time featuring Jonathan Reynolds and Nick Ferrari on LBC. Just a fortnight after a similar mishap, Reynolds stumbled when questioned about the very government review he was promoting, failing to provide basic details on statutory paternity pay. With journalists like Ferrari known for their probing questions, one wonders why Reynolds wasn't better prepared, especially after a recent debacle involving another government minister. I explore how crucial preparation and understanding your interviewer can be, drawing lessons from these high-profile gaffes. Join me as I discuss the importance of media training and the steps that could have prevented this embarrassment. Don't miss out on insights that could save your next media appearance.
