Whenever I watch BBC News, I'm always amazed at how the journalists there don't let their interviewees get away with anything. If he avoids the question, the journalist presses him on it. That absolutely never happens in the US. Journalists just end up being microphones for politicians. It's terribly disheartening, and that's what Stewart's talking about.


You were probably thinking of the Howard vs Paxman "Did you threaten to overrule him?" interview. You can watch it online here - it's pure class! Skip to 3:45 for the good bit.
