BBC Radio 4 Interview
Dear ATCers,
Apologies in advance for invading your forums. I'm a producer with BBC Radio 4 and I'm very keen to interview an ATCer about their job for a Radio 4 programme this weekend. No trick questions, it's essentially about the minuate of the job; how you got into it, training, how you work, how long you work between breaks, the things you see, some of the everyday pressures, etc., all those sorts of things.
My name is Simon Clancy and my email address is [email protected].
If you're interested but don't want to give your name, then that's not a problem.
Many thanks for your time, apologies again for invading your forum and very best wishes,
Simon.

Suggest you speak to the corporate comms guys and gals in NATS, or contact an airfield ATC manager direct.
I suspect you won't find many people risking the wrath of their senior management by speaking with the press directly!

What HD said, tenfold.
It doesn't matter what journalists promise, it's what they deliver that counts, and I very rarely had dealings with an honest one. Apologies to Mr. Clancy, but that's my experience.

Pre recorded interviews are very easy to edit thus making an apparently innocent remark or statement mean something entirely different from what was intended; I would suggest a live interview only with questions vetted in advance, any breach of this resulting in 'interview terminated'.
