Such a pity Cathy never learned the lesson Jordan Peterson handed her for free...

[brocktonblockbuster]

Cathy is the kind of journalist that when presented with a massive scoop involving the deaths of 100, 000s of people, chooses not to talk about said massive scoop but instead talks about her guest’s wages.

Don’t be like Cathy.

This interview is exactly one of the reasons why m.s.m. in this country is not trusted anymore.

[colinjones]

Cathy is a good example of why people don’t like or trust the media.

[bigben]

It is interesting how Cathy Newman is seeking to personalise this story rather than the wider issues that Isabel Oakeshott is bringing to the attention of the public. Cathy Newman is a good example of the shortcomings of corporate media - shame on you! Thank you Isabel for your courage!

[colofsco]

Times radio presenter is exactly the problem why we had lockdown. No mention of the utter disastrous results of lockdown, and not asking the government cost base questions. Well done Isabel.

[bluesheep]

Cathy Newman just gets worse and worse. She's only kept in her job because she's a wind-up merchant, what a pitiful legacy to have.

[denisehay]

Fond memories of Cathy Newman's car crash Jordan Peterson interview! That was pure gold.

[mycelium]

This is a great example of how a person who tells the truth is treated in society. Also, how the corrupt are, not only protected but rewarded.

[ExileGilby]

How Cathy is still employed as a journalist after the disastrous Peterson interview is beyond reason

[suedavey]

Wow. I really enjoyed that. Well done Isobel, you behaved perfectly.

[scheerbart]

Channel 4’s loss is also Times Radio’s loss. Newman is exactly what is wrong with journalism these days...

[Coelacanth]

So let me get this right you got someone to do an interview on false pretences and they terminated the interview ? Fair play to them I say

[daveisbrill]

Cathy Newman is not a good faith interviewer. And that makes her a bad interviewer. Unless she starts acting differently she will be forever be most famous as a MEME for every bad interview for decades to come. As a MEME for 'So, what you're saying is.."

For her sake and the publics. I hope she starts interviewing in good faith, with a focus on honestly educating the public about matter that concern them, rather than interrogating people for gotcha's for her own pleasure.

[Williamottelucas]

Ah Cathy Newman - the gift that keeps on giving!

[Two_Tier_Britain]

*The more I learn about what these corrupt people did under their veil of care & false pretexts is making me feel physically sick. These cruel, self centered little men have cost so many, so much yet we still do nothing!*

[SimDeck]

Kathy doing what she does best, prioritizing sensationalism over accuracy and nuance.

[topscran]

What a great speaker Isabel is. She was very clear and assertive. I wish I could be like her

[commentator]

The fact Cathy Newman still has a career after the interview with Jordan P. tells me everything I need to know about the agenda behind the scenes. The media is not for the people. Private institutions generally are not for the people - some are but most aren't for reasons that should not need excessive explanation.
