NL Interviews Jason Burke

He, the interviewer, looks in complete awe of Jason burke. Like it happens to many of the newslaundry talks another casualty of this conversation. Not a single question. Wonder whether the interviewer has really read anything of the author. Mr. Anubhav Pal thinks the confrontation between the Islamic fundamentalism ( sure jason Burke won’t say such a word) and the West is the most important thing of the Twenty First century. Well, no issues with that opinion. He did not even ask Burke how did this most important event occur, what will be it impacts upon international politics. Burke could have shared his experience with the local journalists and the various news productions. Lets not count the possibilities this interview had. An Indian journalist could have done much better job. (forgive my ignorance for asking what Anubhav Pal does? I even dont think I can google him after watching him like that.

i swear i will stop comin to this site and also stop telling ppl about it if i see another interview by Pal or Alpana Kishore. Tht was the main reason i stopped goin to Firstpost etc cuz they messed evethin up after gettin lil fame so plz dont go the same way. Madhu plz come bak or let Abhinandan Sekhri do this work.

The entire seriousness of the issues that Burke was talking about is killed by what seems like a rookie..can’t they be trained to not be camera/personality conscious? He seems to have a “drawing room demeanor”. On the other hand, Burke is a terrific journalist. Mrs. Trehan should have done this interview, along with the one with Kejriwal as well.

Mr. Pal needs serious training on – how not to ruin interviews.

I can imagine Madhu Trehan giving the interviewer a tight slap after his giggly sissy performance.

Dont mean to hurt him or anything…but very very dissatisfied!!!
