Giuliani talking to Charlie Rose

This interview is superb. Very impressive showing by Giuliani.



It also shows how the long, non-confrontational interview style that 18DoughtyStreet (which I was on again yesterday evening, the episode of Vox Politix on council tax) is going for can work and become far more informative than the combative Paxman style, although Paxman's approach clearly has its uses. What both methods of interview require is a superbly informed and prepared interviewer. Charlie Rose is clearly a master of the art.

It's not just prparation, Matt. One must move with the conversation bringing in things [preparation, yes] at the appropriate time and above all - being interested in the first place. Genuinely interested, that is. Not just because it's your job.

Matt, with respect to your Vox apparence there is a great article on stratfor that provides the evidence for the effectiveness of front line police in anti-terrorist operations using traffic stops. (https://www.stratfor.com/services/freesignup.php)
