- kami8845 14y agoIt was actually very good. She was engaging and it seemed like she not only knew what she was talking about but also really wanted to know the answers to the questions she was asking. She was leading the conversation even with 2 such heavy weights at her desk. Good job.
- douglasisshiny 14y agoI agree. She got out of the way and let Paul Graham and David Hornik have a discussion.
- rdl 14y agoYes, intrusive -- that's the point. Asking questions like she did be annoying if that were an organic conversation among 3 people, but the point of a TV news host/interviewer is to frame the conversation for the audience, including basic questions, and keep everything in context. And to keep things moving, make sure the right points are covered, etc. (You absolutely wouldn't want an extended digression about the origins of index funds or details about one specific investment, or excessive self-promotion by a guest.) She's actually quite informed about the tech industry and startups, vs. some other news anchors who just read from a script and have no idea about the content. IMO it's harder to run a good panel or interviewer than it is to be a guest; converting a talk to an interview/panel is something a competent conference organizer does when he knows his guests are unprepared or not good at speaking.
