The video that I have chosen to write about for my fourth blog post, is an interview between President Clinton and Fox News. I chose to do this particular interview because it is a very detailed and aggressive interview of Bill Clinton. In this interview Clinton is being asked about his influence in the prevention of terrorism before 9/11, and his plans to overthrow Osama Bin Laden and the Taliban in Afghanistan. From the beginning of the interview you can clearly see who the most dominant figure in the room. President Clinton does a very good job of getting his point of across when he is confronted about the U.S plans to protect the country against Bin Laden. He uses very good physical movement to support the information that he is stating, for example he says that what the Interviewer is saying about how strongly Clinton pursued Bin laden, Clinton immediately starts moving his hands all around and getting closer and closer to the interviewer invading his personal space thus making him more uncomfortable about the topic. You can tell by the tones of their voices that Clinton overpowers the other man and becomes more frustrated with the topic as is progresses. However the interviewer attempts to fight back sometimes, trying to interrupt Clinton mid sentence only to be overpowered soon after. In this Interview the body language and shear strength in factual information and verbal domination makes President Clinton the clear victor in this argument, and triumphs over the conservative reports of the Fox News Network.
