The bottom line as far as I was concerned was presenting to the public who Gerry Ferraro was.
Nationality: American Type: Politician Born: August 26, 1935 Death: March 26, 2011 |
I've been invited to appear on Letterman, but they wanted me to talk about a funny videotape of Congress. 'Bring us your outtakes!' That's not our job.
As long as the appointment process is transparent and there is a broad mix of political views among the governors of the BBC, I think the public can feel confident that impartiality and independence are just as important to me as they have been to previous incumbents.
