Episode 19 | Interviewology | How To Remain Impartial...When You're Not.

There's several different schools in interviewing and reporting:

  1. The old school: Interview the subject, and do your best to report just the facts and what they said - you stay out of it
  2. The new school: Bring in your partiality and slant to the interview and the reporting style - put yourself into it
  3. The real difference between these schools is how they address the question of partiality.

    • How do you as an interviewer stay impartial during and in reporting an interview? 
    • Should you even try? 
    • Which is the best model for your audience and medium?
    • There's no "right" answer to these questions, but if you're going to be someone who interviews and relays information you're going to have to address them for yourself and have a reason for why you answer them the way you do.

      In this episode, I explore the different schools around these questions. I then talk about some of their flaws and holes. I then talk about my own way of dealing with and holding my own partiality in my own interviews.

      And I then ask the question: how are you going to answer these questions and deal with yours?
