Q&A Director's Forthnight "Risk"

HERE POITRAS IS DOING THE SO CALLED PROMOTIONAL "PRESS" IN A DIFFERENT MANNER

ACTORS AND PRODUCERS USUALLY GO TO THE LATE SHOW OR OTHER SHOWS TO ADVERTIZE AND TO PROMOTE THE PENDING RELEASE OF THEIR FILMS, HOWEVER, POITRAS CHOSE TO DO IT THIS WAY, WHICH IS VERY EFFECTIVE BUT NOT NECESSARILY DISIMILAR IN FORMAT AND GOAL IN THAT THE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS APPEARED TO BE SCRIPTED AND PRE-REHEARSED.

HAVING SAID THAT I ALSO POINT OUT THE OBVIOUS FACT THAT MEDIA SHOWS AND EVEN NEWS MEDIA WOULD NOT NECESSARILY BOOK POITRAS IN ORDER TO HELP HER PROMOTE HER "RISK" DOCUMENTARY. ASSANGE IS NOT REALLY LIKED BY THEM BECAUSE HE PREVENTED THEIR PUPPET HILLARY FROM REACHING THE WHITE HOUSE
