Azilut: According to other comments Joe has made, it wasn't Major Nelson who cut the interview - it was his PR handlers offstage. The reason Joe looks so flustered isn't because of Major Nelson, it's because the lady standing
behind Major Nelson (who we can't see) is furiously gesturing at him to cut the interview, and Joe is trying to pretend he hasn't seen her. (Edit: Ninja'd by Cormoran)
Without weighing into the "who owned who" debate, I'll just say kudos to Joe for at least managing to get those questions asked, and I hope this little stunt doesn't get him blacklisted.
I did not know this. I thought Joe looks so flustered because of how Major Nelson is reacting to his questions.
