you are correct in pointing out that such online real time interviews might throw up a situation wherein an unsuitable question might be popping every now and then (unintentionally or intentionally) and it would only be hurting CE as a whole.

Of course, what can be done is, there will be central connecting node between the "person to be interviewed" and "CEans" who will be asking questions real time. The connecting node (which can be the actual interviewer, should filter out unwanted stuff sent to him, and re-direct it to the person to be interviewed.

However, along with this a ready set of questionnaire must be ready before hand (as its prepared, currently) so that in case of lesser participation, it can be covered up. As far as the "top" people, I don't think it will be hard for the big K to convince them an hour !!
