At what point should a host end a live interview with a person of immediate national interest due to suspicion that (s)he may be intoxicated or experiencing a mental health crisis? I don’t know the answer, but media meltdowns are really unsettling to me for this reasonhttps://twitter.com/esotericcd/status/970827224151658496 …

Maybe, but I could imagine a person with a drinking problem, mood disorder, or just nonclinical high impulsivity + low stress tolerance reacting this way to e.g. the realization that many of the subpoenaed emails contain clearly racist or otherwise career-ending statements.
In unusual cases like this one, it's probably justifiable to keep the cameras rolling live unless & until it appears that Nunberg is actively delusional, psychotic, or otherwise unable to interface w/ reality... but I have low confidence that that's the right place to set the bar
