Given the controversy with taxpayer-funded VNR's, some stations seem to be throwing the baby out with the bathwater and putting on a total ban of ALL VNR's, no matter where they come from or who paid for them. Even if the script and source can be quickly vetted.
Is your newsroom doing this?
What is your newsroom's position on b-roll pkg's and SMT's?
I'm doing an informal survey and any responses would be very helpful! Thank you. |

If you are not throwing them out...you should.
It is manipulation..even if it is id'd on the air.
There are better ways to tell the story.
If you want a TV news story done..invite a station to shoot its' own video and edit it the way it wants.
Integrity .....please
