Krishnan Guru-Murthy | Full Q&A at The Oxford Union

This guy always creates great learning materials...for what not to do in interviews. Helped me a lot.

The questioner is trying to insinuate that the BBC is biased towards the Conservatives? Ask yourself how many 'right-wing' presenters does the BBC have? The best you will come up with is Andrew Neil. Now go through all the other presenters, ‘Comedy’ shows, News Night, Question Time panels, Radio 4.‬

[@thembluetube]

Well that's just completely not true. The old guard like Andrew Neil, Jeremy Paxman, Nick Robinson, Andrew Marr are all conservative leaning. Laura Kuenssberg was also pretty biased towards the tories in the recent election. They are not far right, for sure, but they are all right-wing.

[@b7ake]

@@thembluetube Paxman hasn't been on the BBC for years. Andrew Marr and Laura Kuenssberg? Deluded. No response to the ‘Comedy’ shows, News Night, Question Time panels, Radio 4?

All the evidence shows lefties are outnumbered on most British shows. How many times has fucking Farage been on question time. The right just say the BBC is biased to the left because of brexit. There’s very few educated people who supported brexit.

[@nietzschean3138]

And even Neil is not actually right wing. You literally won't find one because they wouldn't have a job in any mainstream outlet. The fact that liberals and left wingers think they are still some victim, underdog is a complete delusion or at best dishonest.

[@vdevale2206]

Dude, just watch his interviews with Tarantino and Downey Jr, this guy is a totally asshole

[@Craggle88]

​​ @You tuber He seemed calm and rationale, I think problem is, he was interviewing people for the purpose of promoting their movie, they went into the room with an expectation of that then he started grilling them on deep issues. tarentino on violence in movies, which he has no doubt been asked many times, yes he clearly has a short fuse so didn't want to answer it again and went abit OTT watch the RDJ one, again, he clearly was uncomfortable. some of the questions he asked were not appropriate bringing up his history with substance abuse and his relationship with his dad, asking him about controversial quotes he made several years ago while incarcerated He was asking RDJ about his political stance and he RDJ even comments "are we promoting a movie?" That was his warning, him saying, I am not comfortable with these kinds of questions but he continued anyway Krishnan was acting like he was grilling the history of a politician which is not what they were there for, he acted completley unproffesionally. he asked richard ayoade some weird questionsa also, but richard is a different level comedy genius at times and just confused him instead, I don't watch enough of his interviews but based on just a few I have seen, they have not been good, but maybe I have only seen them for that reason

I see many people post on these Oxford Union Q&A's saying, "Wow! He/She is so much more reasonable than what I expected," or, "this person is not the demon I've seen them made out to be," especially on right-leaning speakers. So, I decided to take a walk down the left to see if I had a wrong impression. By not watching left-leaning, main-stream media and listening to the words being spoken directly by individuals such as Krishnan Guru-Murthy, I had exactly the correct impression of them.

[@TheRealSasquatch]

Krishnan misses the point - it is because we have access to multiple news sources we can compare and contrast - which highlights and exposes the biases of the established broadcast & print media.

[@therand0m1talian]

Depends what news sources you’re consuming. If you’re getting your news predominantly from dodgy so-called “news sites” off Facebook which have 0 regulation, then it’ll give you a distorted picture which one may think is the truth

People who say he’s a hack, or just trying to evoke a reaction to get viewers such as on the Tarantino or RDJ interviews, don’tseem to understand that when those people go into these interviews they aren’t being personable, they’re trying to sell you a film. He’s a news journalist and sometimes it should be his job to hold people to account. Particularly with the Tarantino interview, how was he in the wrong for asking the man who spends his entire career making violent films about the violence in his films

[@siskothekid4620]

The questions he asked RDJ were entirely unfair. He knows it, and he’s still trying to lie about it to save face. The interview was about a movie promotion and he tried to turn it into an episode of 60 Minutes. That is the exact point Robert said by saying “too Diane Sawyery”. He chooses to not learn from it. He’s a lost cause.
