  • Israeli UN Ambassador, Danny Danon

    Amanpour delivered a masterclass of journalism: showing the highest degree of respect, while not allowing opaque dishonesty overlooked. I was screaming into my headphones, she asked literally every question that I wanted answers for. I still don’t REALLY know those answers—he never gave a direct response (but maybe that’s the answer).

    MY POINT: this the best-of-best journalist. Bravo.. and thank you.

  • Please Don’t Interrupt

    If Christiane could somehow learn to NOT interrupt important guests like David Petraeus, then I would be able to hear what Mr. Petraeus has to say, in response to her pointed questions. Rather than hearing incessant, indignant, and disrespectful interruptions from Ms. Amanpour. Let the man speak !! That is the purpose of the interview for God’s sack! Learn some respect!

    Just my observation

    Greetings, Christian. I enjoyed a segment of your recent program on Elon Musk's political views and interference in other nations' elections through his “X” media. I do, however, wish you would address the influence of AIPAC on elections in the free world, particularly in England and the USA. A review of Jimmy Carter's dated interviews may illuminate your listeners. As always, I view your program as the best, most informative, and enlightening.

    Kind Regards
