Interviewing the Interviewer (vulture.com)

Posted by msmash on from the closer-look dept.

Terry Gross, NPR's The Fresh Air host, on the art of the Q&A: "People are always projecting things. They're hearing things that weren't said or projecting meaning that was not intended and, perhaps, not even implied. I've gotten both insults and compliments for interviews I've never done. What can you do? There's no way of controlling what people think. I do have a bullshit detector and it's something I'll use, but I do think I try and be empathetic to everyone I interview," said Terry Gross.

    You don't think:

    1.) Terry Gross is a nerd?

    2.) That her stuff matters?

    I do, and I enjoyed the article.
