Griswold video-bombs Mickens Interview

[Swaye]

Who gives a fuck if it's glandular or not with Fatters. That guy is a fucking asshole who treats paying customers like shit. Fuck him. No quarter. I hope that fag bag of dicks eats himself to death. Stop being pussies around here. Christ.

This thread has gone off the rails. In fairness, I have seen Kim conduct interviews before and he does a good job (when he doesn't have an agenda).

Even in the video, if you look at the questions he asks, there's some decent ones in there.

However, when you walk the line between journalist and trying to be young and hip with the high school kids that the "bizness model" relies upon for news, you gradually lose all credibility for the questions you ask.

There's a reason why someone like Greg Biggins has respect while someone like Kim Jong Vino doesn't.

"does a good job?"

Completely disagree. Did you forget about his first question at Petersen's opening press conference - asking about "access." He also tries embarrassingly hard to be "cool" with recruits, and asking about the favorite meal he will miss is just stupid.

I'm not sure what your standards are for interviews, but by most measurables he sucks.

"when he doesn't have an agenda." You omitted the key part of my quote.

When I used to do interviews at UW ('03-'06) I stood in there with him during post game stuff and it is fair to say I learned a few things from him on how to interview better.

That doesn't mean I think he is a great interviewer and an upstanding guy. After all, the guy stabbed me in the back and sold me down the river. But that doesn't negate things that I saw back in the day.
