controversial, I didn't find Hodgetts interview too offensive.
it's not the scrutiny that he put Clem under that is the problem. It's the lack of scrutiny on Power - though that chance is gone imo.
nothing original, but a different audience reached
Agree 100% - it wasn't the fact that he was over aggressive or anything that caused my piss to boil, more the fact that he doesn't use the same vigour and challenging way when talking to Power, it showed there was an obvious difference. The manner of this interview is how he should be interviewing the club stewards, not just those outside of the club.

He's too weary of upsetting Power as he will remember how the Adver pissed him off

Absolutely - well within his rights to ask Clem those questions, it's the contrast with his softball "thank you Mr. Power" interviews that raises eyebrows.

had any confirmed revelations about power surfaced at the time of the last interview? if not its harsh criticism
I'm sure if power was interviewed now it would be very different to previous

Agree. Hodgetts line of questioning to Clem was entirely reasonable and still largely anodyne. Power gets the red carpet simpering

I described Hodgetts as being prickly in this interview. He seized upon words that Clem said and was a bit testy. But, within his rights to do so. Just needs to do the same with Power.

I will only be satisfied with the interviews of Lee power when he basically says Lee, town fans think you’re a slimey thieving wide boy cunt - what is your response? Thing is we don’t know what’s going to come out of the woodwork. Clem seems to be a supporters wet dream - a straight forward guy who’s made a few Bob and wants to try his hand at football club ownership. Fair play. Reminds me a bit of Bill Power who was an upfront QPR fan but seemed open and honest. Clem is however not apparently a fan of any other club which is even better I trust that the trust have asked a few tough questions of Clem - Shaun hodgetts just seems totally irrelevant - not his fault but the media have been cut out by power not speaking to them and Clem talking directly to the trust. I am probably making no sense apologies I am wankered.

I’m bemused by Shaun Hodgetts’ approach. He must love the club - he’s been here forever - but all he seems to do is give a platform to Power whenever he wants it. He doesn’t interview him, he hands the mic over. The soundbites from Power are not challenged. I understand he may have instructions from BBC Swindon to make sure he stays the right side of the line to make sure that they retain access to the club for commentaries (the only plausible explanation?)... but even still - just interview him, and when he talks utter nonsense, don’t just say “thank you Mr Power”.

Don't forget he's got a good position at BBC Wilts and been there since the 80's when most have moved on so won't want to rock the boat.

There is always the possibility that Hodgetts is on Powers payroll to just stay stum and be another puppet.

I would say he's just being a professional in his job working between the guidelines he's probably been given

Aren't rights sold collectively by the FL and have sweet FA to do with the club?
