I like this video example for its super-ultra-can't-believe-he-actually-said-that badness. However, I also would like to see a more subtle example that is probably closer to reality for most of us. In other words, an example of an interviewee trying to do the right thing but stumbling would be helpful. Experts could then provide practical tips on where things went wrong and how it could have been handled better.
