NEW - Why Simple Questions Are the Hardest Ones to Answer

Graham Richardson explains why the toughest questions he asks politicians are almost always the plainest ones, and what that says about spotting a dodge in real time. For anyone tired of watching interviews go nowhere, this is a look at how the pros actually get past the talking points. He gets candid about stepping away from journalism, why the pull back to the anchor desk was impossible to turn down, and what changed for him watching the news from the outside for a while. The conversation lands on Canada-US relations, why he believes goodwill toward America is eroding faster than most people realize, and how long a Prime Minister's international honeymoon really lasts.
