So you are saying that he came into the interview knowing that he would be shown photographs? That his opinion would be solicited on camera without him knowing what photos they were before going in? It would seem 'good practice' to make it clear to one's interviewee the scope one intends to embrace - especially if there is an expectation of some on-camera assessment to be made. Did he come in knowing that? had he agreed to it? If he had then his pulling out would be odd, yes, I agree. Then the question - why?

I may be 'bought and paid for' to give an interview - that doesn't mean no holds barred. It sounds like you think because he was 'bought and paid for' he was obliged to dance to any tune put to him. I would disagree. I guess we can say that what others thought they 'bought and paid for' ol' Buzz wasn't - in his opinion - selling.
