Meet the Press

Richard Bolling

von

Meet the Press is a television and radio interview program built around direct questioning of prominent public figures. In this recording, the guest is Richard Bolling, a Democratic member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Missouri.

The program’s format centers on a guest responding to questions from a panel of journalists. The conversation offers listeners a chance to hear a public figure explain and defend his views in an interview setting, rather than through a scripted drama or narrated story.

Its appeal lies in the immediacy of the exchange: questions and answers bring political ideas into focus through discussion, giving the recording the character of a contemporary public-affairs conversation.
