Journalism 101: How NOT to conduct an interview

Wow. The webosphere is abuzz today with the story of how Business Week's technology journalist Sarah Lacy fucked up the interview with SXSW keynote speaker, FaceBook CEO and Founder Mark Zuckerberg.

This guy is a 23-year-old BILLIONAIRE and the youngest self-made billionaire on the planet. The audience was a tech crowd. You'd better ask the right questions.

CNET says: "Sarah Lacy out-and-out bombed, becoming much more of the story than she should have been and having the capacity crowd turn on her over the course of the hour discussion."

WIRED says: "They came expecting a civilized, one-on-one discussion, but they got what some attendees described as 'a train wreck.'"

Journalism professor Jeff Jarvis discusses what went wrong on his blog, BuzzMachine. (Highly recommended.)
