He began his career at the bottom of the pile as a runner and technician working under a full news team. Lacking any substantial formal training her tried to gain as much information as possible from working under them. He found that he gained a lot of information while working and was often called upon to practice interviews with the journalists, asking their own questions back to them so they could practice second guessing the answers they would receive. Over time and with this practice he became quite adept at finding the right tone and inflections to conduct interviews of his own. His skill with second guessing the answers a subject would give meant his interview technique typically involved manipulating the conversation to a specific end without the interviewee being aware until it was far too late, gaining him a reputation for skill and integrity but also for being unforgiving in his questioning. | [[Image:DuncanMacRae.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Duncan MacRae]]'''Father - (B: 232909.14) (Age: {{age|2329|9|14}})''' - Duncan is a former political correspondent and currently an editor for the Federation News Service (FNS).

Duncan was able to secure not only information, but was able to use this visit to discover more information about the Bajoran Resistance to bring back to Earth. Upon his return he was approached by Allison Leslie, a researcher and historian, who was interested in the relationship between Cardassian government and the citizenry.
