Why tough questions are good for everyone

I am not known to have many kind words for Condoleezza Rice's performance as National Security Advisor or Secretary of State. However, she does a very good job at explaining the US administration's position on the global war on terror and its resulting policies in the following interview with the BBC. I disagree with many things Ms. Rice says, but wanted to post this to show how challenging interviews actually help the debate and to highlight how sorely lacking tough questions are from interviews by US network news "journalists." Less punditry and more journalism would be a welcome change on this side of the pond.
