A television interview is a form of media communication in which an individual, usually a guest or expert, is being questioned by a host or interviewer on live television. The purpose of this type of interview can vary from promoting a new product, discussing current events, sharing personal experiences and stories, to providing insights into a particular topic. During the interview, the guest typically sits in front of a camera while being asked questions by the host who is off-screen. The format can also include visuals or graphics that help illustrate the discussion at hand. Television interviews are often recorded and later broadcasted on television shows, news programs, or documentaries.
