A TV journalist conducting an live interview has to be able to think on their feet. No matter how much preparation is undertaken before the interview, a good journalist has to be able to understand the answers and connect them into a narrative. That is their job.

You're absolutely right, anoNY42. Mr. Blitzer should work as a writer. Perhaps children's fiction would be a good fit for him.
