The aim of this article is to bring the idea of The School of Social Mindfulness closer to the scope determined by the title question. Using a qualitative analysis of the reporters’ auto-thematic statements, one can enunciate a repertoire of basic skills self-defined by professionals. The material corpus is composed of the statements collected in the volumes Reporterzy bez fikcji (Wojcińska 2011) and Autoportret reportera (Kapuściński 2003), as well as interviews given by Katarzyna Michalak, the co-creator of the workshops. The reflection on the condition of the Polish reportage and on the place of the genre in the era of the appreciation of sensationalist and entertainment-focused mes-sages is born on the basis of the research.
