"Man on the Street" or "Vox Pop" for Vox Populi Isaac Send a noteboard - 27/02/2012 08:40:01 PM
What do you call it in English when a newspaper asks five random people in the street a question? It does not have to be five people, but you get the idea. I hope.


Generally when a radio or TV does it it's either for humor or authenticity flavor in terms of reactions, a paper is more likely to do it as an excuse to use stuff they wouldn't be able to print themselves without scornful comments of bias or low-brow.
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.
