Объяснение:
рамках выпусков новостей прямые репортажи должны соответствовать определенному месту. Даже если прямые репортажи представляют собой сегменты прямой трансляции, продюсеры задают им длину и ожидают, что репортеры будут соответствовать. Спутниковые репортажи в прямом эфире рассчитываются еще более строго, поскольку спутниковое время покупается поминутно, и часто другие станции ждут, чтобы использовать спутник сразу после того, как первый репортаж выйдет из эфира.
Еще одно важное требование к навыкам - быть непринужденным перед своими сверстниками, конкурентами и аудиторией.
