The Wrong Man

Jesse Walker | May 16, 2006

The BBC interviews the wrong Guy:

Guy Goma, a graduate from the Congo, appeared on the news channel in place of an IT expert after a mix-up.

But Mr Goma...was really at the BBC for a job interview.

Mr Goma said his appearance was "very stressful" and wondered why the questions were not related to the data support cleanser job he applied for.

The fellow who was supposed to be on the air was Guy Kewney, editor of Newswireless.net. You can see the interview that transpired instead here.

Coming tomorrow: Goma gets his own show on MSNBC.
