The fact of the matter is, she was a terrible interviewer. I left 15 min before it ended because I couldn’t take it anymore, I was cringing the entire time. The interview was more about her showing off her behind-the-scenes knowledge than about anything else. As designers, we were not interested in the intriguings of politics and who offered how much to acquire Facebook. Instead, there was not a single question asked of Zuckerberg about the design of it. He wasn’t tight-lipped either. The interviewer was very clearly atrocious. Though yes, I do think the crowd wouldn’t have found it as easy to stand up and let her know that had she not been a woman.
