Hey! I know Seth Gannon!
while i despise vox as anything other than pure entertainment, it hits the nail on the head when it comes to interviewees dodging questions it's a very common tactic because some news stations prefer to pressure their interviewees into loaded situations, and a good one at that. you can't force them to say anything they don't want to if they go in a totally different direction

Cut them off if they go off on a tangent. [quote]while i despise vox as anything other than pure entertainment, it hits the nail on the head when it comes to interviewees dodging questions[/quote] Can I ask why? I get that they're left leaning, but videos like below are just relaying facts, it's not their fault that it looks shady as fuck. I'm genuinely asking here, not trying to be confrontational. It's just that when comparing 'left' to 'right' news/media, left often seems more based in fact to me e.g. Guardian compared to Daily Mail.

It just sounds to me like she's shit at deflecting and redirecting. It's so blatant that she's not trying to answer any of those questions. It's like talking to someone and in the middle of you telling them something they go "OH HEY, THAT REMINDS ME OF THIS THING THAT I DID THIS ONE TIME" and then the conversation switches and it's about them instead of what you were originally telling them about. People who are good at deflecting and redirecting don't make it that obvious. It's hidden so you don't know it's actually happening. The fact her entire methodology revolves around trust that the interviewer is going to just move on eventually is a shaky as shit foundation to build that on. I am genuinely curious to know how she responds if someone just kept pressing her over and over with the same question until she answered it, wording it the exact same each time. I mean, it's just so obvious it's disgusting. Imagine being on the witness stand in court and you are asked "what were you doing two weeks ago between the times of 7PM and 10PM" and you responded "well you know what, the times of 7PM and 10PM are really a unique thing, that's the time that a lot of people go out and do things in their evening time. Would you say that it's fair for people to not be doing anything between those times?" They would just look at you and restate the question. And if you continued to not actually answer it you would probably be held in contempt and get fucked. She seems to answer questions very similarly to Donald. Neither of them actually ever answer anything. They run in circles until the time is up. The very definition of blowhard. What a time to be alive.
Kellyanne Conwoman looks like a Hobgoblin, anyone ever notice that? Oh yeah she's also a shit person to interview and I don't know why they keep having her on shows. I guess it just shows how inept the Trump administatio- sorry to put it in his terms, [B]regime[/B] is?

[/QUOTE] I identify as a moderate(though the social spectrum says I'm a social democrat), and a lot of Vox articles irritate me because of their hard left lean. It's the same with how I feel about Fox New's right lean, they present facts -- usually, they've messed up a few times), but it's clear what kind of image they're trying to paint. They give a good base position for the average viewer to work with, but 2-3 minutes into their videos they usually stop trying to hide whatever agenda they're pushing. I'm not just hating on it because 'lel its a funny reddit meme', but because they rarely offer any criticism on people who are left, and almost exclusively only criticize people who are right. tl;dr i dislike both the hard-left and hard-right, i like the middle
I would love see to her up against Paxman. He's been dealing with this shit for decades. [video=youtube;Uwlsd8RAoqI]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uwlsd8RAoqI[/video]
