A Reporter with Tegna’s First Coast News in Jacksonville was caught on a hot mic saying her job is to make Florida Gov Ron DeSantis "uncomfortable."

During a livestream the event, First Coast News Reporter Atyia Collins was heard chatting with someone about her role at the press conference. "No, my job is to ask the tough questions and make him uncomfortable, I guess," Collins said. 

DeSantis political aide Christina Pushaw posted the video to her social media with her comment.

As for Collins, your job as a Journalist is to ask questions that people want answers to.

Your job is not to make anyone “uncomfortable.”

Your questions might make a person uncomfortable, and that’s okay. But it is not your job to try and make someone uncomfortable.

Hopefully, someone at Tegna knows that and can explain it to you.
