Abstract
This chapter will discuss the methodology of interview research as practised in the investigation of economic news. It begins by discussing some literature using this methodology before going on to illuminate the method by way of two case studies. The chapter benefits from the very real experiences, insights and tips provided by two researchers who have interviewed economic journalists reporting the global financial crisis of 2008 and sustainable finance, respectively. Finally, the chapter ends with a guided activity, which puts a lot of the theory into practice.
