Tina Brown

On Friday we finally got Tina Brown to sit down for an interview based on her book, The Diana Chronicles, excellent summer reading. As you may imagine, Tina's terribly busy and could only talk with us at 8am. Not usually an ideal time for an interview as most of us can't form cogent thoughts before 11. Not Tina Brown. She is a star. The former Editor of Tattler, The New Yorker and Vanity Fair completely has her act together at all times I suspect. She helped us fill in lots of blanks for our Diana Conspiracy Theory show and gave a clinic on clever, concise responses. I asked Tina off-camera what she was up to next, and she asked me who I'd like to read a book about. I mentioned our current President, and she agreed it would be fascinating but clearly had some reservations about an in-depth exploration of our ongoing national nightmare. I should add that the interview was filmed at New York's Women's Republican Club (lovely location) so our chat was sotto voce. You never know when the walls might have ears, and at the Republican club their likely to be extra-large. That's an elephant joke.
