Mistake that isn’t one

Month 6 in the profession as a broadcast journalist. Small news room so at times I’m script writer, editor, producer etc. at once.

The other day I interviewed a councillor, the chair of the local district, a fellow councillor picked this apart point by point in a facebook tirade.

I pulled the online copy, the subject matter is quite tense and I didn’t want to upset people by keeping up a representative possibly spreading misinformation on my watch.

The bosses have seen the Facebook tirade and it just happens to coincide with my half year review.

I know it reads as not a big deal but I keep thinking about it, how should I play it when inevitably it’s brought up. No doubt lack of experience adding to anxiety.
