PBS News Hour

Lately, the more I see Judy Woodruff's interviews the more frustated I get with how she gets manipulated by the interviewee! Just watched Tim Murtaugh (Trump Communications Director) on the News Hour. So very disappointed again to see Judy Woodruff allow a political operative not answer questions and lie nonstop. And so frustrated to see Judy Woodruff afraid of interrupting and looking so timid and frightened. Why wouldn't she challenge Mr. Murtaugh's assertions? Can we get another person to do real interviews: hard questions, press to get answers, and control the air time!? Please!!
