I think Latham handled Denton well on 'Enough Rope' last night. Denton is a good interviewer, but last night he showed he is journo, that is hungry for ratings, on a couple of occassions he just wanted to get under the skin of Latham for effect, and I think Latham layed it done really well. Good on the poor bastard.

I have to agree somewhat with that

Denton towards the end behaved very paternalistically towards him, saying "what happened to you Mark" and making comments in a tone of condescending pity. Even when Latham replied quite happily, to the effect of "Don't feel sad!", Denton continued with his paternalism, pressing further with the "No, I'm serious" etc.

I liked when Denton asked if Latham had donated to the tsunami relief. Latham's reply was that the financial arrangements of his family were private. (Read: no he didnt donate.)

I don't like denton. He just seems annoying and petty to me.

He is like Ray Martin.

I always remember once Ray said 'I wonder what is in the Queens handbang?'

WTF? Heavy hitting stuff.
