Last Friday I was interviewed for almost five minutes on Bloomberg TV regarding crisis management and the Goldman Sachs debacle, with about 20 seconds at the end of the interview regarding the BP oil spill in the Gulf.
Funny thing at the interview itself — you probably can’t tell that, in this high-tech TV studio, I was standing…on a box. Seems that they had just installed a new remote camera (no cameraman — just a robot camera mounted on a pole) and it wasn’t set for the right height, nor could they fix it quickly. The engineer on site was quite embarrassed, but I was assured that would be fixed when I next returned. 🙂
