She used the logically "reductio ad absurdum" fallacy over and over again...and Peterson never got riled or impatient (as she hoped he would).

Peterson not only beat her with logic...he beat her with the calm application of it.

So what you’re saying is that Cathy Newman is an over-emotional chick who shouldn’t try having an adult conversation with a cool Canadian psychologist in public, is that what you’re saying?

Yes, that's the skillful thing!   He never lost his composure.  And then, at one point, his come-back made her temporarily speechless.

At which point, Peterson said, "I gotcha."  LOL!

Peterson is a class act and a highly skilled debater with so many facts at his disposal.  And yet, he doesn't play the Ted Cruz game of talking over the listener's head.  He explains his reasons by pointing to actual research people can look up.
