I enjoyed that interview (watched the whole thing on youtube). I don't think Cathy Newman was that bad either, she was trying to rile him but he was just clever and put his points across well. She only got a lot of sh1t for it because Peterson has a lot of ultra right-wing qunt followers who have co-opted him as one of their poster boys. Which is good for his book sales I guess, but even then he had to tell them to back off from all the grief they have been giving her on social media.
I'd like to see a few more interviews where people can stand their ground and are actually able to respond in full. Makes for interesting viewing.
I loved the interview too, but have to disagree on Cathy Newman. I thought she was awful - constantly on the attack but only by putting words in his mouth, rather than having a genuine, adult discussion.
Was it Paxman who started this tradition? Comes across to me as vacuous, ineffective and immature.
