2. Você está entrevistando um jornalista palestino sobre o papel da mídia na cobertura de conflitos.
Quais das perguntas a seguir seriam inapropriadas?
R. “Você pode compartilhar sua experiência cobrindo eventos locais e os desafios que enfrenta como jornalista?”
Você está certo!
Isso permite que o jornalista fale a partir de sua experiência profissional e de sua experiência de vida.
B. "Can you explain the current political situation and how you think we emerge from it?"
Not Quite Right
This question assumes that all Palestinians should be political analysts, rather than respecting their specific expertise.
The correct answer is all other options. They reflect respectful, relevant ways to engage a journalist based on their professional experience and lived experience.
3. You are interviewing a Palestinian academic about the economic impact of occupation.
Which question would be dignified/ethical?
A. "Wouldn't you agree that economic struggles are primarily due to poor governance rather than external factors?"
Not Quite Right
Leading question: This frames the issue in a biased way, steering the respondent toward blaming internal governance while ignoring colonial factors.
The correct answer is option B. It acknowledges a common argument but allows the interviewee to provide an informed response without leading them to a specific conclusion.
C. "What’s your personal opinion on whether economic hardships are the fault of external forces or internal leadership?"
Not Quite Right
False binary: This forces a simplistic choice between two causes instead of allowing for a nuanced discussion. The correct answer is option B. It acknowledges a common argument but allows the interviewee to provide an informed response without leading them to a specific conclusion.
D. "Why do some Palestinians succeed economically despite the occupation?"
Not Quite Right
Misleading narrative: This implies that individual success negates broader systemic barriers, which oversimplifies the issue.
The correct answer is option B. It acknowledges a common argument but allows the interviewee to provide an informed response without leading them to a specific conclusion.
4. You are interviewing a Palestinian environmental scientist about water access issues. Midway, you shift the discussion to the broader political context.
Which question would be dignified/ethical?
A. "Given your research on water issues, how do policy decisions impact Palestinian access to resources?"
You're Right!
This question stays within the interviewee’s area of expertise while addressing broader implications, rather than forcing them into political analysis.
B. "Since you're Palestinian, can you explain the entire history of the conflict and predict future political developments?"
Not Quite Right
Overstepping expertise: Just because someone is Palestinian does not mean they are a historian or political analyst. This assumes expertise beyond their field.
The correct answer is option A. It stays within the interviewee’s area of expertise while addressing broader implications, rather than forcing them into political analysis.
C. "Some critics say water shortages are due to mismanagement rather than external control—what’s your take on that?"
Not Quite Right
Loaded question: This echoes common dismissive narratives that blame internal mismanagement rather than considering broader structural causes.
The correct answer is option A. It stays within the interviewee’s area of expertise while addressing broader implications, rather than forcing them into political analysis.
D. "Would you say the water crisis is more of a political issue or an environmental one?"
Not Quite Right
False dichotomy: Water access can be both a political and environmental issue—forcing a choice between the two limits a complex discussion.
The correct answer is option A. It stays within the interviewee’s area of expertise while addressing broader implications, rather than forcing them into political analysis.
