To me, staging is something journalists do out of laziness. I think that they mean well, but they don't realize is that they're tainting the credibility of journalism each and every time they do this. I think in their minds, what they do as a journalist in ONE story out of desperation, will not affect anything. What journalists don't realize is that it is easy to fall into this habit of staging, and everthing that we do is on display. It DOES affect everyone! I think the only way to get journalists to NOT stage is to create an environment where it is very much looked down on and where natural is commended, not perfection.
