Interview Page #4

Our guest tonight has won two national

News Emmy Awards for his TV work.

With the ABC news show 20:20.

Danny Schechter - great.

Listen, it's after nine.

You don't watch?

Can you turn to Fox, please?

What is your take on

what's going on in Washington?

Well, what happens in scandals like

this is not just the first reports.

But whether or not there'll be

follow-up and persistent digging.

Can I have my remote, please?

Please, I just need to see this.

We find that a lot of journalists

become more competitive.

When there's a big story breaking.

And I think they'll go after this one.

But with an indictment

of this size...

We're likely to see

a feeding frenzy in Washington.

Which could escalate

this into a much bigger crisis.

I think we're gonna see the

blogosphere taking the lead here, but...

Are you still angry with me?

Is that it?

I'm not angry with you.

Then are we still friends?

Of course we're still friends.

Why wouldn't we be?

But friends return phone calls.

Friends tell each other their problems.

Hey, Larry. It's me.

Are you watching that event now?

No, I'm not.

Well, I tell you who's not on it.

Me.

They never let you anyway.

Ha-hah. Very funny.

Because I'm not in DC.

That's why!

Just leave me alone, please.

Not until you tell me

what's going on.

There's nothing going on.

Don't you get it?

Amy.

Look, I just wanna be left alone.

I'm not sending you down there

to hang out just with anybody.

Okay. Look, fine.

I'll pay for it.

I will get there on my own.

All right?

I'll write a story and if you don't like it,

you don't have to use it.

What about the other piece?

What other piece?

The one I'm paying you for.

Yeah. No, it went fine.

We talked about her tits,

we talked about her movies.

It's very moving.

Talk to me.

You know what Larry?

Just forget it.

No, f*** it.

Pierre, maybe next time.

F*** you.

That was stupid.

You know there're more journalists dead

in Iraq than in all of Vietnam War.

F*** you.

I want you to be happy.

That's all.

Amy.

I need you in my life, baby.

You know you

can tell me anything.

I love you.

But I miss you.

I miss you, too, Amy.

Hey, that's you.

No.

Don't look at me.

I'm a mess.

I think you're beautiful.

Who writes this sh*t?

Sophia?

Hi, sweetheart.

I didn't expect to see you here.

I'm good at crying.

You know sometimes...

They want the muffled weep.

Then sometimes the sob.

I'm impressed.

That's a good acting.

I don't know if it's acting.

It's more like a trick, you know?

What other tricks do you know?

I can do this with my tongue.

It's genetic, really. But still...

Now I see why you're star.

At last.

All right. So, were you...
