Especially with In Character interviews, there's a tendency to want to sim it out in the news post. But our news is different than a joint point, and simming doesn't come across the same way. That's why it's important to use a more newsy style instead of a simming style. Avoid ::action tags:: and descriptions in favor of an editorial-style introduction and then simple question-and-response.
