Meet the Press
Anastas Mikoyan
by
Meet the Press is a television and radio interview program built around direct questioning of prominent public figures. Its panel of journalists presses guests to explain their positions, decisions, and public statements, making the exchange itself the focus of the program.
The format is conversational but pointed: a guest responds to questions from several reporters, with follow-ups that can challenge or clarify an answer. This recording features Anastas Mikoyan, a senior Soviet official, in an interview setting that brings international affairs and public policy into sharp focus.
The appeal lies in hearing a consequential figure address journalists face to face, where careful answers, disagreement, and spontaneous exchanges reveal as much as prepared remarks. It is a compact example of public-affairs broadcasting centered on scrutiny and discussion.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
