Scene 10 Flashcards
Beginning of Scene 10
You’re late.
I was editing some material for today. I cornered Eilidh and the Knoxes after the fight / and asked them some questions.
We can’t play that. It’s not news. It’s harassment.
Trust me, our audience will lap it up. Have you seen the comments?
No, I don’t want our account to get shut down.
But I’ve edited-
And we’re on! Thank you for tuning into Dochetenny Junior High’s official news stream.
The best student content across the Borders.
Today the news is…
That’s your cue, Douglas. Today the news is…
The news is…
…always a matter up for debate, don’t you think Rhona?
Erm, sure. Do you want to tell us about the new bus service to Melroch?
In a moment. Today we thought we’d ask you, our viewers, for your opinions.
But first, the news today is…
My co-host Rhona here thinks we shouldn’t report on the Dochetenny Witches.
That’s not / what I said.
Which some of our viewers could think is a little fishy. What do you think? Should we keep you updated about the Dochetenny Witches? (gesturing at his phone) You can leave your comment on any of our social media.
I just think Mrs Knox wouldn’t want us to-
-share the facts with our audiences?
(Whispering off-mic) It’s not professional!
And the comments are coming in!
(Reading) I’m not a witch! It’s called “journalistic integrity”…
…I know the Council doesn’t run this channel…
(Whispering off-mic) Douglas?!
Anon15 makes a very good point about protecting the community.
(Whispering off-mic) Douglas, they’re linking / to my accounts.
Now now, PitBulled47, we can’t have that language in our programme. Though he does have a point.
Douglas, they’ve posted my address.

…
…really guys, I just wanted to save the best till last!
Of course!
Douglas knows I like to save our flashiest material for the final segment.
That’s your style!
And we’ve got to do our part. To save our school.
