I was one of the handful of people who watched this live in 1982. I recall myself eye-rolling a lot when she was challenging him on the possible negative influence to society concerning his lyrics and videos. His material was lightweight compared to what was about to come in the music industry.

I'm not a big Mellencamp fan, but I have to give him huge props for sticking to his guns and not giving that condescending "journalist" the satisfaction of humiliating him in a public forum. We all pretty much know who John Mellencamp is and what he's doing today. No one can say that about the self-serving woman who tried to make a name for herself with a gotcha interview, though.

It's appalling how often they do this. They'll agree to ground-rules to get the person on and then immediately renege. They do this because it makes world headlines when the person gets flustered and chokes or tells them to f**k off and knocks something over on their way out. It's win-win for the reporters, who insist that they are incurably innocent and the celeb is just being their typical fragile diva self.

Everything was going smoothly between Cougar, at ease in baggy sweat shirt and kneeless jeans, and interviewer Felicia Jeter, until Jeter took exception to a salacious video of one of Cougar's songs, which features women in leotards and chains cooing to Cougar's caresses. She began assailing Cougar with unctuously posed but valid questions: Aren't you the establishment now? Don't you have a responsibility? And Cougar, a thirty-one-year-old married man with two children, responded, "I don't go to PTA meetings. I don't go to the Nazarene Church. I don't vote. I don't do any of that stuff." He sounded proud, and a little rattled. Jeter was appalled and continued to press hard, until Cougar unclipped his microphone, muttered some obscenities and walked off the show in midsegment. The Empire strikes back."

I’ve seen many journalists/reporters use this same approach in interviews. Barbara Walters, Diana Sawyer, Krishnan Guru-Murthy, Piers Morgan, etc. It’s become a thing because media executives saw a pattern of conflict interviews increasingly the number of viewers and their revenue. When the masses collectively stop feeding this it will seriously decline.

His song Jack & Diane was a love song about an interracial couple so he had a social conscience and probably didn’t appreciate being underestimated or pigeonholed as something he wasn’t. He’s continued to make good compelling albums and art to this day. As far as sales go, that’s a young man’s game as, Paul McCartney has said. Older fans don’t buy a ton of records or stream that much.

When an interviewer sees that the person she's talking to, is uncomfortable with her line of questions and she asks, "why...what's so uncomfortable", it's not that she's trying to stop whatever is making him uncomfortable, it's that she's trying to make him admit that it's his fault. What was over the top, was for her to ask him if what would have made it OK, was if she would only ask questions only regarding what he wanted he wanted to talk about! She was patronizing him and expecting him to submit to this.

I used to like John. I liked him a lot! I remember American Fool coming out. Great record with several more to come. I am a 54 year old musician. I started playing clubs not too long after American Fool came out. I dont push my opinions on the people who come see me play. Yes I am still paying clubs not arenas, but I would NEVER WALK OFF the stage because the people dont want to hear my political views. Shut up and play the music the people spent their money (and quite a bit) on to hear. This insnt the 60's when bands were preaching peace and love against a war that pretty much everyone but the government knew was wrong. You are different than me and that is a good thing. I dont think like you dont expect me too. I will still listen to your music, but when you walked off the stage like a spoiled child, you took the respect I have for you with you!
