    I have not seen this mentioned in the original article, in his blog post or on this AMA. But, I'm sure he's had that feedback because we talk about that freely here.

    It's always curious to me that reporters are completely fine with going into r/mturk and talking to workers but are EXTREMELY reluctant to come into these forums and talk to people.

    I have to think about that for a bit to come up with what I believe might be a valid reason.

    Wait up, do people actually think you should be paid to give an interview? Is that how stupid we are that we don't even think about how unethical it would be for news agencies to pay people for interviews? Does no one see how that would lead to people lying to get paid?

    I mean that guy may be ignorant of what mturk is like after only spending a week with the platform, but thinking that you should be paid for an interview of a newspaper article is the same level of ignorance. It makes turkers look pretty dumb. As if anything with questions attached is some kind of HIT you need to catch.

    Just drop that shit already.

    So as an individual near the top of the # of posts list (and Randomacts probably gets more than I do), you do get an occasional PM from a reporter doing a story that wants to chat. I usually ignore em.
