They were professional and very good. Its a whole different type of interaction when you want to actually get a real answer from someone you may even suspect of crimes, and/or do not like them personally during an interview. That is a special kind of skill. This is not a schadenfreude hit piece made for some kind of instant gratification for the audience, its crafted to reveal the truth which can only be procured from the mouths of pertinent actors by giving them the clear impression of your impartiality. Or even that you are sympathetic to their point of view. Or for some appeal to their ego. That takes a strong stomach and an iron will. Unlike Fox News, this truly is 'we report - you decide' type of journalism, where the facts will eventually damn those who seemed so cajoled into talking for the camera at an earlier date.

Unfortunately, the series just lets them lie without pushback. Piss poor interviews. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #12

Its not Mueller, its investigative reporters LiberalLovinLug Dec 2018 #19

But when the interviewee states a lie, they should at least say so after the interview. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #20
