Your role and duties as a broadcast journalist can reflect this environment. There may be some general responsibilities as a broadcast presenter that you can undertake in any organisation, but your specific tasks depend on the role you undertake. You can use investigation, interview and research skills to present current events and news, along with general information or announcements, to a specific viewer demographic. You can also attend political events, press conferences and other media events.
Some broadcast presenters also have direct interaction with an audience or the public, such as on television or radio shows where individuals can offer opinions. It may also be common when working as a broadcast presenter to interview specific guests, like celebrities or public figures, with objectives in mind to lead the conversation. The exact nature of your goals can depend on the subject of the programme you’re presenting. Programme subjects can include lifestyle, reality, music, sports or news. As a broadcast presenter, you also uphold legal standards and maintain journalistic integrity.
