True. Without defending the reporter, as I have my own opinion about the interview, it isn't a bad thing that she tries to challenge his view of the situation to get more information, but the way she does it seems forced and coercive, trying to almost pin him as "one of them" without saying it directly.

Edit: I've also read about his past, as a few other people have responded to your comment linking to some of his history as an activist. That's a whole different ballgame from the one I was originally talking about, which is responsible journalism.
