“There is no such thing as a dumb question.” Carl SaganAs any reporter schooled in the “journalistic six” – who, what, when, where, why, and how – will tell you there are no dumb questions. Questions are a journalist’s stock-in-trade.Excluding the endless fusillade of questions by a two-year old, the astronomer and planetary scientist Carl Sagan wrote, “There are naive questions, tedious questions, ill-phrased questions, questions put after inadequate self-criticism.
