1. Riffing off a twitter essay by @heywriterboy (go on his tl & read), I want to say a few words about Ghomeshi's staff on Q.

@HeerJeet yeah, that's what producers do. how it works on all CBC shows. -
@jenniferallford Oh yeah, I don't want to say that this is unique to Q. But to highlight something most people wouldn't know. - Show replies

5. Is Ghomeshi a very talented interviewer? Yes, but he never did it alone. He had a terrific, talented staff.

6. Ghomeshi's terrific staff worked very hard to make him look good. And he abused them. That part of the story too.

@HeerJeet Jeet, they were “echoes” because those questions were all scripted by the producers who pre-interviewed you. -
@lisstless Yes, absolutely. Will RT so everyone is clear on this. - Show replies

@HeerJeet Everything on the show was elaborately scripted. Pre-interviews/scripts are fairly standard in radio; JG rarely went off script.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@HeerJeet I've wondered if his interviews w/ musicians came more from 'him.' It was his area of expertise, and he often seemed more engaged.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
