WGBHnews reporter Adam Reilly knows politics, campaign races and has the pulse of voters on his mind when he’s out covering stories involving the electorate.
In a unique fist-person approach, WGBHnews takes listeners inside the gathering process through the eyes of Reilly by posing questions to him during a sit-down interview on the day of the New Hampshire Primary-The First in the Nation vote and where our WGBHnews staff was reporting LIVE with wire-to-wire coverage.
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be on-the-stump with Donald Trump or Bernie Sanders? How close can a reporter get to presidential candidates and can they ask whatever questions they want? What happens along the campaign trail? How entrenched does a reporter become? What voter-generated issues do they touch upon in their line of questioning?
In his audio diary aired on WGBH's Morning Edition program with host Bob Seay, Reilly offers a personal reflection of what’s it’s been like to cover the 2016 presidential campaign and the First in the Nation primary.
Reilly, along with WGBH's Digital Editor Peter Kadzis and DATELINE DC analyst David Bernstein, is a regular contributor to the WGBH weekly political podcast, The SCRUM, which can be found at WGBHnews.org/scrum.
