Interviewing technique

This morning on the Toady programme John Humphrys "lost it". Shouting at George Osborne after inviting him to answer questions, was not interviewing but mere rudeness.

Perhaps Humphrys had a case, and Osborne some questions to answer. We never found out. I think that a producer or someone else must have whispered in Humphry's ear because later in the programme he was much more gentle.

Is it a personal thing, or is it that Osborne was representing the enemy party? I can only hope that in future Humphrys learns to keep his cool, or tries to cut down an interviewee more rationally and calmly. It was most unedifying, and revealed nothing except Humphrys's rudeness.
