What I find worse is when the interviewer doesn't let an interviewee get a word in edgeways, often seemingly because what they try to say doesn't fit with a program or channel's own agenda. If you won't let them speak, don't invite them on in the first place.
Three culprits come to mind. Two from the BBC's Newsnight: Emily 'indignant' Maitless*, and Evan 'hysterical' Davis. And Jon 'high and mighty' Snow from Ch.4 news.
*which autocorrect always wants to change to Meritless - the one time I think it's right :lol
