http://www.smays.com/default/2008/11/audio-interview-with-pawlenty-on-youtube.html I've really got to start writing some of this down Sat, 13 Mar 2010 02:43:15 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 http://www.smays.com/default/2008/11/audio-interview-with-pawlenty-on-youtube.html/comment-page-1#comment-302 Lance J Wed, 19 Nov 2008 18:27:59 +0000 http://71.54.211.34/2008/11/audio-interview-with-pawlenty-on-youtube.html#comment-302 I think it is an interesting way to present the interview, but it treads too far into the area of editorializing, especially when she uses phrases like “indeed.” Unless that was Cox’s intent, she is better off just asking the questions and letting the answers speak for themselves. She will not get too many people to agree to interviews if they understand that they may be ridiculed, ala Colbert Report, Da Ali G, etc. That said, it’s a fun watch/listen/read. I like its use better as a way to describe the interview subject’s reaction ... Like when she described how he put his fingers together. On the other hand, if you’re going to the trouble of making a youtube video, why not use video? Decent video recorders are cheap these days.
