How to skewer someone? Watch closely.
During the 1960 presidential
campaign, she profiled Rose Kennedy, skewering Camelot’s sainted
matriarch under the headline “Mother Comes To Town.” Rose Kennedy,
Curtis makes clear, is cosseted and demanding. Covering a midday
press appearance, for which Mama Rose is turned out in Oleg
Cassini, alligator shoes, and a pile of gold, diamonds, and pearls,
Curtis simply documented everything Kennedy did. Mrs. Kennedy…
said she was too warm, that someone should turn on the
air-conditioning and that if there were going to be pictures, she’d
like to put on a hat and gloves. She disappeared into her bedroom
and returned wearing a white wool toque. She worked her small hands
into long white kid gloves while the television cameras were set
up. And someone found a pillow so she would be more
comfortable.
‘If we’re going to be on television, I wish you’d tell me what
questions you’re going to ask,’ she said…. ‘I don’t answer
political questions. I talk about the way the children were brought
up…..’ The reporters continued their questions. The cameras ground
on. And Mrs. Kennedy pulled out a jeweled compact and powdered her
nose.
