I hesitated for ten minutes before sending script because I was terrified I had worded something in a way that could break media law. No one really tells you how heavy that responsibility feels until it is on your desk. Do you ever wonder if fear of "getting it wrong legally" holds back young journalists?

Sometimes! But being under great management and knowing that your crew has your back and wants the same thing you do (to create a great show) reaalllyyy HELPS!

True, good management makes all the difference. When leadership actually has your back, even the hardest projects feel lighter.

Absolutely. Fear of messing up legally is paralysing when you are new. Most of us learn by walking the tightrope, but without proper guidance it just scares young journalists into playing it too safe.

Journalism is the best job in the world but I feel like people are less likely to take my work seriously because I am female.

Is there some way I can tell my supervisor that yes, I do like those stories, but I like being a serious reporter even more?
