As executives of Overland Insurance Corporation, /
whenever you speak with a reporter, / it is crucial for you to be aware /
that you are not simply chatting with a friend. //
You are functioning as the face and the voice of the company. //
One mistake or miscommunication in such a situation /
can cause enormous damage to the company. //
This is why we’ve been asked /
to provide you with this half-day media training session. //
As you can see, / our video crew is here /
to simulate the conditions of a real TV interview, /
and your video trainer, Mr. Iwata, / is a former television reporter. //
We will begin with a mock interview of five minutes, /
after which we will review and critique your performance. //
We will then follow up with a 15-minute interview /
followed by further discussion and instruction. //
