Yeah, so this has happened several times in my career, and I'm certainly not the only journalist that this happens to.
It happens quite frequently.
I think people would be surprised how often it happens.
The most recent time was, you know, literally just somebody a couple of weeks ago saying, hey, just thought I'd let you know I had a conversation with blah blah, and they said that blah blah, political operative, is looking for dirt on you.
Wanting to know who you've slept with, whether it's possible you've had a relationship with, insert politician's name here, they're really going after you this time.
I think you need to take care.
And that's usually the way that it happens.
It'll be another journalist who lets you know that somebody is looking for something or that somebody is spreading a rumour about you, or it'll be a political contact that you have yourself who's going, hey, just thought you need to know that this is what's going on behind the scenes.
Yeah, it's strange because, like, you know, most journalists have nothing to worry about, right?
Like, I have not had any relationships with politicians or staffers or anyone within the political sphere.
And even if I had, I would certainly declare it.
What is the issue is that you do feel surveilled.
You feel like you're being watched, that all of your conversations are being picked over for political gain.
You start thinking about like maybe you've had a joke with somebody that could be misinterpreted if it's for like, you know, a wider audience or something like that.
It gets to the point where, you know, you can have a very normal coffee with somebody in your work field.
So I had a
a coffee catch-up with a politician when I recently went interstate.
This is something very normal.
It's part of my job to keep an eye on politics across the country, state and federal, just to know what is coming.
And I get a call a couple of hours later saying, oh, by the way, you were spotted having this coffee with this male politician.
