VNR

I do not think that VNRs are good for journalism. Just because someone sends you a VNR or holds a press conference doesn't mean that you have to air it or hurry and send a reporter. The worst is when you run the entire VNR, even the narration that came with it. I don't think it would be a problem if they had used JUST the video and added their own, well investigated and reported, story. Sometimes you just can't get video.
