I came across an interview in the Memorable Moments section (the �just watch me� clip) with the Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau, when he was accosted by journalists in the seventies during a hostage crises. I was not aware of this incident before, as it was before my time. The interview was superb, and is a lesson for all politicians in dealing with lily-livered journalists.
