Oh, no! How could he?!

I’ve long thought that it would be useful, or at least extremely funny, for Jeremy Paxman to spend a bit of time in the US; it would be fascinating to see how the likes of Trump and Musk would cope with an actual adversarial interview. They’d probably _melt_; US interviewers are extremely deferential to the rich and powerful by contrast.

Don't have a valid reply so you have to say something stupid?

Apparently you don't know what professionalism is and an interviewer should never raise his/her voice.

An interviewer can absolutely raise their voice with an uncooperative subject, at least around here.

(The US does tend to habitually treat rich and important people with kid gloves in interviews, and this is unfortunate.)
