Real journalists put people on the spot.

Their (the subjects) feelings dont matter. Go watch some 60 minutes Mike Wallace interviews.

If they can charm their way through the interview they win. If they cant well then we can all think about that.

But dont for one second think that a real journalists ideal should be to play host to technology bozos.

If being polite were a journalistic trait Nixon would still be in office.

Yes, but how would they get their next interview?!

Rock the boat too hard and suddenly you're outside the circle of trust. Enough talking heads out there kiss ass to the point that press releases posing as journalism rule the day.

But hey, at least you'll be on the guest list for the next Apple event!
