This video via Joe Silence's No Silence Here blog shows how Lane Kiffin was able to come out on top in his last battle at UT. Rare video: media tension before Kiffin's presser | No Silence Here | knoxnews.com.
I agree with the boring looking guy from Channel 10. It seems to me that Kiffin was the one who needed to be able to say he had "appeared" or "faced his critics" before bolting from Knoxville. People (future recruits, etc.) can't really know that the soundbite is canned or controlled as they watch a report on ESPN. And by going along with the ultimatum of the paper-pounding boob in the argyle sweater (who heart-warmingly referred to Kiffin as "coach" just before the cameras started rolling . . . awwww) the "media" allowed Kiffin to deliver his scripted, 30-second statement without answering any questions. Regrettably, the "media" folded like a house o' cards.
