Katie Couric’s 60 Minutes interview with John and Elizabeth Edwards produced squawking in certain quarters. Here’s a Katie-centric remix from The Blue State that’s racking up a lot of YouTube views.
CBS News has posted the complete interview here.
Couric writes in her CBS News blog that she was surprised that some people viewed the interview “in a negative way.”
I was also surprised to read an article in the New York Times about how people viewed this story through their own personal prisms – some in a negative way. I really used some of those voices as a framework for my questions. I knew that everyone was reacting differently to this, and I wanted the Edwards to have a chance to elaborate and respond to issues people were raising. When the interview was over, the biggest complement came from Senator Edwards, who thanked me and said: “You asked all the questions that were out there.” I think they appreciated having an opportunity to respond.
