yes. The series was canned not long afterwards. Kim has done good interviews in her career but his wasn't one of them.

Not an idiot … a voluntary tool and corrupt. She knew exactly what she was saying and the intentions behind it.

@@AriusBLKI have no problem accepting both assessments! Both valid!!!

I was an art student who barely followed the news. and even i knew this. I mean... the UN said they found no weapons of mass destruction. it wasn't hard to find that. the MSM pretended like that fact wasn't established when it was clear as day. hence MSM is largely to blame and must never be trusted again.

Indeed for Pilger But Hill? She is clearly a gatekeeper for the Global Mafia. Vile, venomous and ultimately vapid for refusing to express an original thought

How do you sleep at night?

Thank you for your honesty , we can see it all now clearly if you want to face it , so bloody sad what has happened in the Middle East , it’s a total shit show and it breaks my heart that so many have lost their lives these past 20+ years

he always was

@@naomixx177 That shouldn't be the question, most troops/ veterans merely followed the orders they were given. Not knowing the consequences. Question should be why was Tony Blair and Bush jr. Never charged ? We obliously run by double standards here in the Western world, we say " rules based order" but we don't even apply to them ourselfs.

Remember then Senator Joe Biden publicly berate Scott Ritter in the US Congress for attempting to tell the truth about the so-called WMDs in Iraq?

Very well put indeed !

Ditto that .

Absolutely true,

Until he lost the plot in his latter days.

It was the mainstream media that broadcast this though.

Don't throw the baby out with the bath water. At least we have multiple outlets to contrast and compare. JP was brilliant and i read most of his books but he didn't get everything right. Towards the end he was referencing Russian media to support some his claims regarding the invasion of Ukraine. I appreciate he saw the worse of US foreign policy eg Vietnam and Cambodia and I think this skewed his reporting at times.

John Pilger worked for British United Press, Reuters, and the English & US Daily Mirror. He also wrote for the New Statesman magazine and The Guardian newspaper. Pilger's career on television began on World in Action (Granada Television) and later he worked at the BBC. These are all mainstream media outlets.

I also boycott the big supermarkets, I get my food from locally owned establishments and shops.

@@rickarnold6704 I didn't see his coverage of the war in Ukraine but yet again the war was provoked on purpose and maintained by the US. Watch John miersheimer and Jeffer Sachs.

These are deep state "journalists" and just say what they are told to say.

I agree

Her face pulling is similar to a young child not getting their way ,hilarious,John is brilliant as ever 🙏

Yes, she was embarrassing. Her tossing the book is unforgivably rude and disrespectful. She is a failure of a journalist.

...and the host was exceptionally foolish!

Brilliant indeed. Crazy brilliant answers and explanations, actually. I a French old dude am glad to listen and watch such a high level Journalist, for a change 😍

@@TukozAki he's not half as good as pierce Morgan 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Both Pilger and Hitchens were brilliant.

💯 ❤

​@Fred-sy5sg no comparison. Pilger was a brilliant journalist and the other dude is a controlled puppet 😂😂😂

Kim got kicked in the butt from beginning to end of this interview and her butt still didn’t feel it. That’s worse than having a thick skull. Simple lesson Kim do some research before you interview the likes of John Pilger.

Oh no I didn’t realise he died?!

@@antpoo Oh no, same here! No mentions about him in Swedish media, then again our media is exactly like this interviewer, warmongering and eager to join Nato despite they are not allowed to report on anything that 'could risk relationships with 3rd powers' meaning US and UK 🤦

could get a bit agitating though when listen find further things albeit likely more fraud & hypocrisy which JP been already fed up with such immoral muck beside the biased suggestive leading inquiry, obfuscation, & else

I had no idea! It wasn’t mentioned by the BBC.. for obvious reasons. There are only a few real journalists left with the integrity and knowledge of John Pilger. They will now attempt to write him out of the history books.

I have . You won't be disappointed. RIP John..

A giant of a human being against a peanut, I wonder if this kiwi peanut dare even look at this clip nowadays?

💯

I'm confused. Is he living forever or resting in peace?

@mostpeople_ Farkenell dude, DEEP!! You're a Zen poet son, am going to have to medfuckinitate on that one. Give me a few months for a formal response.

not her finest hour

Exactly how on earth did she keep her job for so long?

Standards are low.

How dare you call it a shee😅

At least the interview was broadcast. In the UK it probably would have been suppressed

To the contrary, she kept her job, like many other journos at that time, precisely because she conducted interviews like she did this one! She was doing exactly what the leadership class wanted her to do at that time.

My favourites also, both sadly gone.

Me too.

Wondering what what the interviewer think today

@@oscarwilde5473 the series ended soon after and wasn't renewed. Kim went back to RNZ.

She seems very snarky indeed !

She’s probably in trumps camp

People who are wrong are condemned to be rude.

Feminism

Yes, I'll go halves on the Nobel prize and millions of others would too.

nobel prize itself is a joke, nobel himself stole the making of TNT and awarded himself a prise for stealing that knowledge. Mr Pilger is, was and will forever be bigger than the basis of a stolen and self serving idea of nobel! morover the merder barry setiro (barrack obhama as you know his stage name) received the same degenerate 'award' (it's a joke not an award). researching nobel reveals lies which is the opposite of the great, missed, leadership of, relentlessness of, fighting of, revealing evidence of and real journalism of Mr Pilger. nobel is a disgrace, the award a joke.

You got that right !

...and a foolish interviewer!

unprofessional, first and foremost.

She put much effort into refusing to be corrected.

He schooled her and gave an education on journalism in this interview.

Nowadays they wouldn’t give a John Pilger 30 seconds. Here they gave him 20+ minutes. And she was far more prepared than the clowns of today.

@@AaronB99999 By "they" you mean Mainstream Media I understand? No, "they" wouldn't, but "nowadays" we have various other outlets and platforms. And the woman was not prepared, but schooled in the official propaganda, very aggressive, and highly disrespectful.

lamestream media...stealing that one. spot on with everything else you said. another good recommendation to watch is george galloway. scott ritter has sometimes appeared on george's show here on youtube.

Well said!!!

He stuck to the truth, relentlessly,

Well said Dan, I agree 100%.

People in the west don’t want to know the truth , it might take away their comfortable lifestyle , it’s a corrupt and broken world , MSM have much to answer for , I stopped watching their BS around May 2020 when I woke up

Not if you've spent any time around oestrogen it isn't

@@sbwlearning1372 This woman couldn’t agree more. These pit bulls were once confined to elementary schools terrorizing 8 year old boys. God help us.

Thanks for giving me a good laugh .@@sbwlearning1372

Don't forget Diego Garcia.

Hear Hear! Well spoken!

Well said

Principled, incorruptible, ethical, courageous to the last. What a giant of a human being.

Correct on many issues but not on Myanmar where he was pro isolationism and sanctions

Certainly one of the greatest journalists in history. Its unlikely we will ever get a journalist as good as him again. He came from a generation. That had better quality education growing up. They did not have any internet but they could read and that generation was extremely well read as a result they produced better journalists who used the English language far better than current generations all retired now if they are still alive or passed away. His journalistic documentaries were absolutely brilliant and directly challenged the Empire. He was one of the greatest journalists of all time. The last of the greats and the world is poorer for it. RIP John Pilger.

Nicely said rohanmarkjay!

If not the...greatest journalist.

Then with regards Julian Assange he should be listened to !!!

She is not an air head but repeats what she is told to say.

There are a few brilliant journalists on the scene - all active on UKposts. Richard Medhurst, The Greyzone (Max Blumenthal & Aaron Mate), Ben Norton, Brian Berletic, the two from Breakthrough News (Rania Khalek and Eugene Puryear) and finally the brilliant Vijay Prasad. I'm sure there are lots more but these are the ones I've come across who have impressed me big time.

@@AInfrEEzebr I would add Chris Hedges to that list

Julian Assange Johns good friend

She knew she hadn't done her homework on this, knew he was showing her up for this fact and knew that what miffed him most was that her lack thereof was the antithesis of how he habitually does his journalistic work, hence his anger. She effed up, majorly here.

She got bamboozled

Thar was all she had.. the art of projection something she showed not very good at..

She is horrible and always butting in, again a hidden agenda

Well said..what a sad truth

I can't think of one.

Kim should stick to books, politics not her finest.

I believe this is a tribute to the great John Pilger - the female correspondent is irrelevant. She has no idea what she is talking about but reinforcing the narrative propagated by her pay masters. I don’t even know who this Kim person is & I never will, but John Pilger is part of human history!

Kim was good on National radio. This interview was one of the poorest I heard.

Not her finest moment? They do this deliberately.

well i thought it was not only very informative which is why John Pilger is so missed, it was also very entertaining which to be honest Kim should be given deserved credit for.

They're on online and doing podcasts.

they dont get promoted, or hired in the first place.

The news companies are owned by the zionists

I have hope that Aaron Mate & Max Blumenthal will carry on where John left off. But I know what you mean, in fact it was my first thought when I heard he had died.

'Empire Propaganda' is spot on. Let us never forget what we're dealing with

Hundreds of thousands of us marched against the Empire at the time and were ignored , as usual.

The greatest journalist they've ever had. Or are ever likely to have again There should be a statue.

No this is their job, they do it deliberately. They have to beat the drums of war because they are told to sell the war to the people. So other rich and powerful people become even richer and more powerful. She knows which side her bread is buttered.

I doubt it

I wonder too.

I can only feel it must be an honour to have such a man of integrity, John Pilger, as a friend! You were blessed! 🙏

​@habsom1406 Yes, very much so. John was blessed also with a loving family and a wonderful partner who cared for him. Love is the most important thing. As John knew only too well, the biggest and most important heroes are the ones we never hear about, the ordinary nobodys who are truly kind and have no ego or money issues, who are financially unremarkable but who know what life is all about and have deep respect and sensitivity. John was like that in his everyday life. His kindness and love for others was returned in beautiful ways and truth. He was deeply loved and he did his best to return that love. His enemies only increased the respect that we all had for him. We lost à true human being! He left us a legacy that will live for as long as good humans are around. We are blessed to have known people who love deeply and care deeply and read deeply. The world badly needs help.

@@mozartsbumbumsrus7750 What a wonderful tribute to your wonderful friend, thank you.

@michellenorris8471 Thank you for your appreciation. In my experience, the true real heroes are the ones we never hear about - the ones we wouldn't look twice at - the ones who avoid the lime light - the ones who have less ego - the ones who have no money - the ones with few possessions - the poor, who know what real kindness is, and who are altruistic who give unconditional love. Those are the sapiens who I want to know and be with and share with and help each other. No government no politician has the mental strength or structure to do any of that. None!

Seems like he was about as close to a saint as we get.

Yes

100% right thank you John.. he’s right on Ukraine as well

💯👍

She retired yesterday.

@@KevJDunn About time!

Truly, John Pilger has tended to stay topical and controversial, sometimes for many decades.
