Article Abstract:
The change in the manner of reporting by foreign affairs reporters, hitherto dressed in formal safari suits, is discussed.

However, television viewers do not view the programs based on personal stories from foreign countries as foreign. Consequently, the foreign affairs reporters changed their style of reporting.
