I don’t hate him as much as some of you lot seem to, but he’s definitely showing signs of being from a different era – I remember a few years ago when that whole Pussy Riot shenanigan was occurring in Russia he was interviewing a gay woman from Moscow and asked her how “normal people” reacted when she held hands with her partner.
Incredibly the interviewee (to be fair, being interviewed in a foreign language) let that one go rather than the rather obvious “it depends if they are gay or not, or do you mean that gay people aren’t normal?” that I would have preferred to hear.
Once you become aware of it, you then start hearing it in many of his interviews – never explicitly homophobic, sexist, racist etc. but it’s definitely there in the language he uses.
