News channels have always had interview shows, but we need different kinds of interviews with different kinds of interviewers - interviewers who bring different life experiences to the table.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have a hard time with interviews, because I'd rather hear about the interviewer.
I'm always trying to get those interviews that are impossible to get, because they are the ones that are most interesting to the audience.
Interviewing politicians and movie stars, you know what you'll get. I like the people-stories better.
A good interviewer is able to ferret out what the applicant is really passionate about. Ask them what they do for fun, what they're reading, try and find out if they have a life outside of work.
A spontaneous interview feels differently than anything else you see on television.
It must be quite rare for an interviewer to be interviewed.
I remember sitting one time doing 100 interviews in a day, and they're all television interviews and they're kind of - and you just sit there and they bring these people in and out, and in out.
I was fortunate that I was at newspapers for eight years, where I wrote at least five or six stories every week. You get used to interviewing lots of different people about a lot of different things. And they aren't things you know about until you do the story.
I love conversation and the sharing of different thoughts and philosophies. That kind of stuff always makes me happy. I don't mind interviews, either - I like doing them.
I never liked the idea of giving interviews. One says many things, but when they are published, they become shortened, condensed. The ideas lose their meaning.
