How not to do a television interview:
I hope this is satire. After all, why would you place a visibly agitated elderly black man with a history in radical politics in front of a red hot building, have a white woman with an air of professional arrogance ask him leading questions (btw, is she mispronouncing his first name as »Marcus« instead of »Darcus«?), tone down his mic when he answers, and cut away to sports without letting him finish the sentence?
Whether Mr Howe’s arguments are legitimate is not for me to judge – and it’s not the point. The point is that if you only watch this clip, it seems as though the UK got its own offshoot of Fox News and it’s called the BBC.
satire – no. but at least the bbc shows some respect and apologises: http://www.bbc.co.uk/complaints/content/response/res_bbcnewsriotscoverage
