Ross Douchehat, the pansy-assed interviewer, offered no concise factual follow-ups to Trump's incessant lies - 2 weeks to a nuke, rally size, his campaign efforts, his election data...
Dear Ross:
It is acceptable to ask follow-up questions in an interview, rather than just accept any drivel that falls out of the mouth of the person you’re talking to. If you need some examples, get some old tapes of Mike Wallace, Harry Reasoner, or even Dan Rather. Hope this helps in your career trajectory from “opinion writer” to actual reporter.
We all understand you’ve been thrown in the deep end and that you’re unqualified for such a big show, but then the person in charge of the show is unqualified too, and look where that got her! With luck you can be unqualified and successful, at least for a while. So follow my advice and learn the concept of “skepticism” and better yet, “preparation”.
Your pal,
