Hi Lisa! I really appreciate all the work you do when things “hit the fan” on the hill- I was one of the many people refreshing your twitter feed for healthcare debates, confirmation hearings, and countless other breaking-news events since the 2016 cycle.
One of the reasons I started following PBS as a news outlet more closely is the ability of you and your colleagues to remain level-headed and practical when wild news is unfolding, particularly while reporting during live events.
How difficult is it to remain pragmatic in your live coverage tweeting/reporting/analyzing? Do you find yourself caught up in the moment? How has the current political attitude towards reporters in general affected the way you handle live reporting and questioning?
