On Friday of this week, we were shown a collection of interviews by various news network in which there had been some problems with the Live interviews, whether it be because of the presenter or the guests. An example of the videos we watched include Jeremy Paxman's interview with Michael Howard, in which Michael dodges a particular question about whether he threatened to overrule somebody repeatedly.
I took it upon myself afterwards to find some more examples of how interviewers manage to get information out of defensive interviewees, and how they deal with interviews when something wrong is happening. One particular interview I found was Channel 4's Jon Snow interviewing Mark Regev.
In this particular interview, Mark dodges several questions repeatedly and sometimes even gets quite aggressive in his responses to Jon Snow. I chose to study Jon's reactions to these comebacks and Mark's defensive and argumentative nature so that I could learn what best possible way there is to react in this situation for our own news network unit.
