Lights, Camera, Courtroom: Lessons From Mike Wallace
Law360, New York ( June 14, 2012, 12:21 PM EDT) -- After CBS News legend Mike Wallace passed away in April, the Associated Press described him as "60 Minutes' pit-bull reporter whose probing, brazen style made his name synonymous with the tough interview style he practically invented for television more than half a century ago . . .

"[2] An Associated Press story that appeared in The Wall Street Journal Online explained, "Wallace didn't just interview people. He interrogated them. He cross-examined them. Sometimes he eviscerated them. His weapons were many: thorough research, a cocked eyebrow, a skeptical 'Come on' and a question so direct sometimes it took your breath away. "[3]. . .
