I answer engineers from other companies all the time but never answer journalists. Engineers give a vibe of “cares about what you do and wants to collaborate”.

Talking to journalists is like talking to the police - as an engineer you don’t understand the situation well enough and you need to involve an (expensive) professional to navigate it.

The question going through my head when I get journalist emails is “can I ignore this and save the hours of work with legal/pr?”.

On most places only the PR team is even allowed to talk to journalists. Exactly because that "is like talking to the police" issue.

It's a very sensible and correct policy.
