Here's a few clips of the candidates I've put forward, please feel free to name others and try and give reasons why? I always liked Paxman for really grilling his guests but I've been watching Stephen Sackur a lot lately and he's got the same Paxman attitude but is also great at adopting the opposing position to his guest (whether he believes it himself or not) so as to fully press them.

Jeremy Paxman (BBC Newsnight):



Adam Boulton (Sky News):



Stephen Sackur (BBC World Hardtalk):



Bill O'Reilly (FOX News):



Wolf Blitzer (CNN):



Larry King (Larry King Live CNN):



Chris Morris:

There is only "The One", so everyone knows Naomi Robson (from Today Tonight - 7 News) is clearly the best (or was) interviewer/presenter today's media.

Today Tonight is quality televised journ...no I can't even say it sarcastically, it makes you bleed from the brain and ears.

lol. I think only fellow Australians will understand what we're on about.

Oh, and that clip of Today Tonight ^^^ is a parody by a comedy show (the name of which I forgot)

Chris Morris FTW!!!!

Hardly news though.



(that MP actually asked questions about CAKE (a made-up drug) in parliament)

I like Jeremy Bowen a lot, but he's not so much an interviewer. John Humphries is a very good interviewer too. Paxman isn't bad, but he's a bit of a swarmy cunt.

Jesus Christ I rwally hate that O'Reilly dude. He just says completely unfounded comments that he's made up on the spot to make the other person look bad.

Paxman is great. He seems to get away with going though the whole interview by only asking one question!

It wouldn't be an issue if they ever actually answered it.
