Where do scoops come from and how did they get them? How did they generate the copy? What did they watch out for? You'll come away understanding their motivations and see how and what they did, to get their scoops.

Join me as we go down the rabbit hole to uncover what makes an outstanding scoop and what it means to be a journalist.
