News interviews gone wrong
When the BBC’s Fiona Armstrong interviewed a 68-year-old West Indian journalist about last summer’s unrest in the UK, she pegged the man as a past rioter. He replied with a scolding that went viral.
While giving a film fest press conference in May, director Lars Von Trier responded to a question about his German heritage with a joke about Nazi sympathizing.
Two hosts of “The View” walked off the stage in October 2010 after a heated discussion with TV personality Bill O’Reilly. Which sentiment set them off?

Things got off to a bad start when CNN’s Kiran Chetry mispronounced the name of her guest, the 2007 Spelling Bee Champion. The gawky teen then proceeded to make Chetry sweat over every question.
Back in 2005, the “Today” host tried to discuss Cruise’s religion and his take on psychiatric drugs, but the star proved combative. What was his two-word affront?
The “interview” never got past the greeting phase when the typically meek Icelandic singer knocked down a reporter awaiting her at a Bangkok airport.
A 1994 ESPN2 interview turned into a schoolyard brawl when host Jim Rome taunted his NFL quarterback guest, likening him to a less-than-manly female athlete.
Daytime talk show brawls are hardly unique, but Geraldo’s infamous skinhead interview got dangerous for the host and the audience, as well.
The late-night host didn’t even pretend to understand Crispin Glover's ramblings, wardrobe and karate kicks during his 1987 guest spot
