Answers.Text: Not a bad answer. But the "source" is the heroine's boss. So I want the audience to know what the boss thinks.

  If you don't need the interview to be conveyed verbatim, you can have two characters discussing (or arguing about) points from the article.
  
  The people discussing the article could even be the hero and heroine, without having them read it aloud verbatim. "Did you really say that?" "I think the author took that out of context. What I meant was \_\_\_\_\_\_."
