Piers Morgan is featured in the October/November 2011 issue of Capitol File Magazine.
In the issue Piers talks interviewing Condoleezza Rice:
“I was warned, for instance, that Condoleezza Rice, the first person I interviewed on the set of Piers Morgan Tonight, could be rather serious and dull. Nothing could be further from the truth. I was instantly, to my bemusement, criticized for being too “personal” with the former secretary of state. Yet I found her answers made her sound considerably more human and likeable than anything she had said in previous interviews.”
He also talks why politicians are interested in appearing on his talk show:
“Elections are won or lost through policy first, of course. But without a personality to match, you have no chance. That is why you are seeing more and more senior politicians in America wanting to come on my show. They can see it gives them a rare chance, over an extended hour-long interview, to show the public what they are really like away from the sound-bite-riddled terrain of traditional news programs.”
Piers Morgan Tonight airs weeknights at 9/8c on CNN.
