@andyjey I tend get more bothered by the opposite, when vegan options are too healthy and/or free from gluten etc. I just want food without meat or eggs or cheese, that's it.
@HannahAlOthman I just think about the way as a (local) journalist all you're after is a few quotes and a pic so your news editor has 350 words to fill some space on page 7. You're exploiting people dealing with a tragedy just for that.
@HannahAlOthman Regardless of that, I was never comfortable with the fact that as the journalist, you are seeking to exploit people's grief. And you can't possibly do the person justice. And while some people are pleased to be contacted, I'm not sure that balances the distress caused to others.
@HannahAlOthman Well, often a different story. Or none at all if we're talking about local/regional paper death knocks. They depend on the photos from the family etc.
@HannahAlOthman True. I reckon it's fair enough for people to be suspicious if they've actually been an activist for one party or another, and are now presenting themselves as impartial, though. Especially if they aren't particularly forthcoming about their activist past
