But I think the problem, at least with this particular episode, is that there's no indication that the journalist has any particular slant or bias or insidious agenda or anything like that. The very fact that she wants to do a story on B5 is taken as evidence she's an annoyance.

Yeah. I was speaking of a reason JMS might be biased against reporters even given that he was one, and not referring to this episode's reporter specifically. Sorry for being unclear!
