Watching Ron Paul on Pier Morgan.

Piers is one of the poorest interviewers on cable. He never makes his guest answer the question he asks. He is letting Ron Paul get away with some really obfuscating responses that never address the question asked. Ron Paul is really cunningly evil person.

who's been in communication w/A3P? Dr. Ron Paul. Morgan is an entertainment host -- nothing more.

Here's the thread if you're interested:

6. Why news hosts let their interviewee off the hook?

Hosts and journalists are afraid of badgering their guests because they are afraid that they won't get any one on their shows. Politicians will refuse to go on. Look at the Rachael Maddow show, she made Rand Paul try to defend his idiotic civil rights stance. Now he refuses and other GOP refuse to go.
I use to take pictures of local soccer games. I needed to get group pictures of the team. If I waited to take a group picture after the game, the winners would ham over the picture. the losing team would walk off and refused to get their picture taken. Because they knew that the picture would have a caption of losing in it.
As a photojournalist I speak from practical experience.
