Emily Maitlis: The Truth About THAT Prince Andrew Interview, BBC Exit & Future Of Journalism

[@hm2011100]

What an absolute legend. Incredibly moving how she speaks about the toll of her job - she looks fit & healthy, but the “vodka & caffeine” was so honest & goes to show how hard it is to know what someone so high functioning is going through internally.

I've been impressed by Maitlis for as long as she's been at the BBC. She really is the consummate professional, and yet she somehow has an almost unflappable air about her.

I think it was brave of her to share her thoughts about “how many”, speaking of victims in Paris. We have all become desensitized and her moment of “this is not normal” was great.

[@samilede]

I love her honesty; it sounds as if there have been plenty of days, months, and years when it's been so tough for her. Especially with a family, and trying to balance a career with being a mum and wife. I'm no where near the high performer she is, but I won't feel a failure now on the days I struggle if someone as accomplished and skilled as Emily needed coffee and vodka to get by and sometimes hid in toilets!

Good evening from the beautiful SF Bay Area. I just watched the Scoop last night and loved it. I have a special place in my heart for journalists. As a child in the 50's & 60's we had so many superb ones to look up to. Emily is new to me and I am as impressed as ever I was with Dan Rather or Walter Cronkite. The movie featured so many of my favorite British actors that is really why I watched it at first. Rufus Sewel, Keely Hawes, Gillian Anderson, etc., fantastic. Thank you.

[@jimmyl324]

What a magnificent job she did in that interview. Genius.

[@davidstephens106]

It was such a revealing interview in a world where interviews are about the interviewer probing with loaded questions and failure to respond by interviewees. This worked because Andrew was just allowed to talk. We got to observe his full body language (not hidden behind a desk) and his words revealed his innate sense of entitlement and disconnect with the norms of the real world. These didn’t provide hard evidence of guilt but definitely made it crystal clear that the way he sees the world and his warped sense of honour (amongst his circle) meant he was more than capable of doing what he is accused of, possibly without any realisation that those things are wrong.

The lady who done the Tate one was a disgrace and should be sacked. All her replies were " so your saying " and then hit him with a stupid line

@fredinabun1986 You must have watched a different interview. Lucy Williamson, competently outwitted Tate with credible quotes from police and charitable organisations with concerns about his effect on young people. Tate is entitled as the accused to be treated fairly by the justice system and for journalists to expose the truth of accusations.
