English term or phrase: how professionally we approach it
In the context of educating the media on how to cover the security sector, it has been noted that many people don't buy newspapers or watch TV news because there is too much coverage of crime. Please suggest how, in that context, a native speaker would translate the clause 'how professionally we approach it' in the following sentence: "That demonstrates the importance of how we portray a problem, how professionally we approach it, and how sensitive we are about the social effects of our coverage."

seprofesional apa pendekatan yang kita lakukan
Explanation:
I think the term "approach" should be translated as it is, which in Indonesian would be "pendekatan" because the context is how a reporter/writer approaches criminal coverage. It refers to the way the writer deals with the subject matter.

secerdik apa kita mendekatinya


Explanation:
Ini akan berlanjut di potongan berikutnya: sepeka apa kita terhadap ....

Saya menggunakan cerdik alih-alih profesional, sebab, IMO, acuan bagi profesionalisme dalam konteks ini samar-samar. Sementara membandingkan yang cerdik dan tidak cerdik lebih mudah.

Ada beberapa padanan bagi secerdik, di antaranya (dengan konotasi agak negatif) adalah selihai.
