    The news reporter wanted a feel good puff piece regardless of how inappropriate it is. The interviewee wanted to report the actual news.

      The company that owns that NBC affiliate wanted a feel good puff piece. I doubt she had a say in the matter.

        Yeah, she’s just following orders.

          We all know how good “just following orders” and “just doing my job” turns out.

        A misunderstanding on your part I thinks. I believe they are saying it was inappropriate to attempt to sanitize reality so they could release a “feel good puff piece”.

      Was it live? Probably not. That means they left it in on purpose.

          Yes. But if they aired it, they aired it on purpose. Clips like that are rarely actually live. So they made a show of not continuing to give him airtime, but they gave him enough to get his message out - twice.

            It’s says “Live” in the upper left hand corner.

              They often lie about that. It’s usually pseudo live, as in, recorded just a short while before.
