Merriam's defines interview as a formal consultation or a "meeting";
Webster's New World uses the term "face to face"; American Heritage also uses "face to
face" and "conversation."
<<(yep, that's the word Hajdu uses, and I trust him to know what he was
doing) with Pynchon>>
Trust; what a useful trait in a journalist. And we are all familiar with
your cavalier use of the language, your use of the word "journalist" again comes
to mind.
Leave it to the Malignant One to argue with Doug on principle, even when
there is nothing to argue about!
