Man that was painful to slog through, she was so… not participating in good faith, but kudos to him for remaining so calm while she blatantly mischaracterized what he’d said. Up there with that Fox News tucker Carlson interview with the teen vogue reporter where she calmly owns him and refuses to play into his schtick.

God she is trash. He did very well

Thanks for the link, I’d never heard of Rising Tide before today but I was so impressed with the interview that I donated them some money! Cheers!

Thanks for posting, I didn’t see this when it was new. One excellent move was around 3:00 when the climate speaker points out that the cops and government shouldn’t be taken at face value, because skepticism and distrust of the government is a clear point of unity between much of the channel’s audience and the climateprotesters, especially those Sky fans who are anti-lockdown and saw how police handled them.

As we’ve seen recently with media coverage of mass positive reaction to the health insurance CEO assassination, this puts Sky in contradiction to the audience of their corporate propaganda. The interviewer might lose their job if they punch upwards (the wrong way) and so they’ll probably position themselves against most of their viewers. This isn’t quite the same, as the police and government aren’t providing the Sky paychecks, but are the enforcers of the Sky owners’ position.

I’m also wondering if it was good luck or baiting that the interviewer circled in on the knee-jerk “China bad” xenophobia: regardless of views on China’s governance, their renewable efforts are commendable, and the interviewer was baited into blaming China for their coal pollution and they’re now justifying blocking our coal trade!

That was one incredibly well spoken, well prepared, and well informed interviewee. We need more people like that.

I think the technical term for how that interview went for the news anchor is “get rekt”
