need to see this entire NPR interview with Andrew Callaghan because it sounds like it was a disaster pic.twitter.com/lIOTQBsCwd— toni (@tonestirade) January 5, 2023
Tbh I was really not a fan of the way he handled Alex Jones in general. Haven't seen the doc, basing this on the vid he put out. Letting some chud that can barely string a sentence together tell on themselves for two minutes uninterrupted is one thing, but Alex Jones is a grifter and knows exactly what he's doing. Letting him just say shit for an extended period of time with no pushback or editing doesn't work.
And also now I'm hearing about the abuse allegations from this thread. Extremely disappointing, I feel so awful for the victims, especially since this is going to be exhausting for them to get themselves taken seriously.
100%, I said about the same when that clip came out a few months ago where Jones just spoke over him, took over the space and just made this Walter Sobchak psycho rant. Like you can tell interesting and important stories by interviewing pieces of shit (Louis Theroux has a good history of this) but if you can't control the interview and just put out the footage anyways to clout chase then at a certain point you're just aiding and abetting.
There is truth in the NPR interviewer's question even though she asked it in a way that makes her sound like a pearl-clutching lib, which in all fairness she probably is.
