EDMONTON — Alberta Premier Danielle Smith broadened her new media\u002Dquestion restriction policy Saturday to limit not only questions from reporters but also from…
Smith’s chief adviser Rob Anderson confirmed the change in a statement on Twitter, writing “ is taking one question per media outlet per press conference for six weeks so she can get to more outlets during the upcoming election period.”
Reporters from larger news outlets often have more than one reporter call in or attend Smith’s news conferences to ask questions on diverse topics unique to their beats or unique to stories they are working on.Article contentFollow-up questions are considered crucial to allow reporters to clarify the first answer if necessary and to hold politicians and public officials to account if they don’t answer the first question but instead deliver tangentially related talking points.
Smith replied the UCP has an open, “one member, one vote” party where everyone gets a say. No follow up. Callers to the show traditionally don’t get follow-up questions, but a caller Saturday asking about electricity costs squeezed in a main question and two follow-ups.
