“It’s been a big and interesting week,” Sherman told Media Insider from the Parliamentary press gallery yesterday.She was aware there had been a lot of feedback but had not been able to fully engage with it all because of a hectic workload.
“Every day has been super busy and I’ve been dealing with a lot of things other than that issue which, honestly, I didn’t quite understand. I appreciate the feedback but I was surprised at the level of enthusiasm and criticism that people had towards the way that I presented the poll.”
Sherman says she is always listening to her viewers.
“Because I care so deeply about doing a good job and taking the entire audience along with me and securing their trust, I am always open to feedback.
“I’ll be open to tweaking the way that I may present a poll, but not completely. I don’t want to lose my own style and my own flair and what I bring to this role.
“While I’ll take feedback on, genuinely, I’ll be the decider of where it lands at the end of the day.”
You see, I just want 'the news'... not for Maiki or anyone to take me along with her.
