Media Protocol
Do you know the basic rules of interviewing? Would you know how to act at an interview, either on-the-spot or scheduled in advance?
Here is a list of the top ten media interview mistakes:



  1. Popping off comments you regret later.
  2. Not remembering who you represent with your statements.
  3. Not answering the questions accurately or concisely.
  4. Failing to mention the sponsor, team and/or driver.
  5. Not removing obstacles- sunglasses, earphones or hats that hinder eye contact.
  6. Not listening to the entire question.
  7. Not knowing your interviewer type (rapid fires, interpreter, misquoter, uninformed).

  9. Not using good body language.
