avoid booking interviews for him. How do you balance your
responsibilities to your boss, the county, your role as a public
communicator, and still maintain relations with the media?

scenario. Think outside the box and don't assume there are exact
right or wrong answers. Avoid "I feel" sentiments....defend your
position with facts.
