Question

Since its invention a little over 130 years ago, the interview has become a
commonplace of journalism. Today, almost everybody, who is literate will have read an
interview at some point in their lives, while from the other point of view, several
thousand celebrities have been interviewed over the years, some of them repeatedly.
So it is hardly surprising that opinions of the interview - of its functions, methods and
merits - vary considerably. Some might make quite extravagant claims for it as being,
in its highest from, s source of truth, and in its practice, an art.

as an offence against my person, as an assault, and just as much merits punishment. It is
cowardly and vile. No respectable man would ask it, much less give it. "Yet Kipling had
himself perpetrated such an assault and Mark Twain only a few years before.
HG Wells in an interview in 1894 referred to the interviewing ordeal' but was a fairly
