David Carr in today’s New York Times about the Cosby affair(s) My job as a journalist was to turn down that assignment. If I was not going to do the work to tell the truth about the guy, I should not have let him prattle on about his new book at the time. But I did not turn it down. I did the interview and took the money. I paid for that in other ways. The interview was deeply unpleasant, with a windy, obstreperous subject who answered almost every question in 15-minute soliloquies, many of which were not particularly useful. After an hour of this, I mentioned that the interview was turning out to be all A. and no Q. He paused, finally. “Young man, are you interested in hearing what I have to say or not?” he said. “If not, we can end this interview right now.”
