I didn't respond to people thrusting microphones at me and asking me questions that were unanswerable in a sound bite.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't talk in sound bites.
I don't vocalise things that don't deserve attention.
I found I wasn't asking good enough questions because I assumed I knew something. I would box them into a corner with a badly formed question, and they didn't know how to get out of it. Now, I let them take me through it step by step, and I listen.
Maybe you're going to a concert thinking you're not going to hear anything but music. But you may walk away from there with an answer to a problem that you're carrying around with you that you didn't think you were going to hear about.
I'd been shouting and shouting and no-one wanted to hear me.
It's not good to be in a situation where people don't want to direct you or don't want to question something.
I'm different, and my manner invites questions. I'm never afraid to answer.
It was not easy to get all my questions answered, frankly.
I did things with the microphone stand that no-one else has attempted to do.
Well I have a microphone and you don't so you will listen to every damn word I have to say!
