:42:00
How do you respond to accusations
that journalists...

:42:03
...underestimated the brutality
of the Khmer Rouge...

:42:05
...and so share responsibility for
what happened in Cambodia afterwards?

:42:09
We made a mistake.
:42:12
Maybe we underestimated
the kind of insanity...

:42:14
...that $ 7 billion worth
of bombing could produce.

:42:17
That is provocative...
:42:18
There have been a lot of refugee
stories in Reader's Digest...

:42:22
...about Cambodia.
Do you believe them?

:42:24
Don't you believe them?
:42:26
Maybe in this instance the
Reader's Digest happens to be correct.

:42:30
Do you apply the same disbelief
to stories...

:42:32
...that come out of Iran
or Palestine or Chile?

:42:35
Are refugees your next area
of interest?

:42:37
Will you be covering the boat people?
:42:40
No, I will not.
:42:41
Do you want a cup of tea?
:42:44
Are you looking around for some kind
of more salable suffering?

:42:50
I must have sent 500 letters.
:42:57
I wrote the International Red Cross,
the World Health Organization.

:43:01
I know you did, Syd.
You told me.

:43:04
I don't know who I didn't write to.
:43:13
I never really gave him any choice.
:43:20
One time we tried to discuss leaving.
:43:32
I talked to him about it,
but we never really discussed it.

:43:39
I discussed it with Swain and Rockoff.
:43:46
But I never discussed it with him.
:43:59
He stayed because
I wanted him to stay.
