neutral  patinba: would training be provided on journalistic assault? The Danish ref concerns an assault on the bar :)

  -> Hi Pat, I think 'journalistic assault' is a strategy, and maybe one would need training unless one were a born natural :) The Danish ref I think was a copying and pasting error :)))

ambush journalism


Explanation:
Wikipedia

Ambush journalism

Ambush journalism refers to aggressive tactics practiced by journalists to suddenly confront and question people who otherwise do not wish to speak to a journalist. The practice has particularly been applied by television journalists, on news shows like The O'Reilly Factor [1] and 60 Minutes[citation needed] and by Geraldo Rivera and other local television reporters conducting investigations.
The practice has been sharply criticized by journalists and others as being highly unethical and sensational, while others defend it as the only way to attempt to provide those subject to it an opportunity to comment for a report. This can usually be discerned by the level of physical aggression the journalist displays and in the time allowed for an uninterrupted answer.

"asalto" is used in the sense of ambush in colloquial Spanish in Argentina at least - "vamos a un asalto en la casa de X" means we are going to ambush a friend at home on his b'day for example.
