The professional announcer or journalist tells 90% of the story, and the person they're talking about is standing right there next to them. The person who's being "interviewed" gets one sentence out, and then the journalist grabs it back again and finishes the story. It's a concerted effort to prevent the interviewee from saying something that could (possibly) embarrass the news channel.
That's my guess, but I could be wrong.
