A journalist interviews a homeless person who shares their struggles, including losing their home and job due to addiction and not seeing their daughter for a year. Despite the individual's heartfelt account, the journalist faces criticism from a local resident and is told that their story lacks the "evidence" needed for publication. The resident’s harsh comments reflect a common negative stereotype about homeless people. The journalist is advised that the story is more of an opinion piece rather than a factual report. Despite their effort, the piece is shelved, highlighting the difficulty in addressing homelessness and bias in reporting.
