Because he knew it wasn't real despite the well-meaning, but ignorant, persona the reporter is trying to create.
The game is: Gin up a grievance, real or not, then play the "victim". Society has been trained to be polite and assume everyone has a valid point, so they generally just do what it takes to make someone happy, even if they don't necessarily believe the grievance is justified.
Society has created a system that rewards the perpetually aggrieved.
These are just examples of people testing the boundaries of the system.
