Cathy Newman (the journalist) is putting all her efforts to make that interview interesting and to present Jordan Peterson views. That is why she is trying to make it controversial and tries to present most likely misinterpretations of Peterson's position. These misinterpretations allow Peterson clearly state what his position is and what it is not. I think Cathy Newman did a good job with that interview. She could do it even better if she was a little bit less aggressive with interrupting Peterson. She still had to interrupt him though in order to maintain good interview pace (but interrupt a little bit less). Note that most likely Cathy Newman finds Peterson's views on that topic - interesting. That is why she invited him to do that interview and promote his book.
