Journalistic interview techniques

The interview is considered one of the most important tools in journalism. From it, reporters obtain the information they need to structure stories or reports. In order to build a narrative that presents credible information and is authoritative in its discourse, it is necessary to draw up a good script of questions, which will then be directed to the sources. Furthermore, using interviews requires professionals to adopt a series of attitudes that also contribute to the development of a quality journalistic product. It was with this in mind that Yago Moreira decided to put together a manual in which practice and theory merge to outline the paths that the interviewer must follow. In this book, he portrays the work of a search for journalists who are references in the art of interviewing - within the national scene. Challenges, strategies, recommendations and a great desire to extract answers that reveal the true self of any interviewee.
