What interviews should be like
at 11:48am on Monday, 10th March 2008
If you have five minutes to spare have a listen to John Humphrey's interview this morning on the right to choose whether to have a deaf child or not. (It's the 8:10). It struck me for a number of reasons. First, because Humphrey's wasn't completely sure of his ground, he had first to listen without interrupting to his interviewee and address the points put to him on their merits. Second, there was long enough for a decent exploration of the issues. And third, probably as a result, i am personally now much more aware of the politics of deafness than i was when i woke up this morning. Isn't this what public service broadcasting is supposed to be like?
