A reporter should always be the part of the society, which he lives or works in. He should be friendly to the local people. He should have a strong resolve, courage and conviction to report something impartially. A reporter should always have a nose for news; He should always be in pursuance of some unusual news: i.e. a dog bites a man is not news, but a man bites a dog will definitely constitute and interesting news for the people. Any one who wants to take up the reporting profession should have the caliber, capacity and resources to investigate some matter at his personal level also. He should be free from all the political and economic influences and biases. To confirm news, a reporter should depend on all incidents. While reporting, one should always see to it that only facts based on evidence are being reported. For this, a reporter should carry some recording device with him. The facts being reported without a basis of evidence may land one in trouble like being involved in defamatory case. In short, reporting is an area; one should tread on the due caution.
