Clinton-Wallace, in a different context

Sometimes when I am trying to evaluate something, I like to change the setting to figure out how reactions would change. I did this with the Bill Clinton-Chris Wallace exchange from last week, and I'd be curious to see how people would have reacted to the different exchange. So let's say that tomorrow, Bob Costas sits down with Terrell Owens. T.O. stipulates that Costas must spend half his time asking questions about the Cowboys' season, and he's free to ask what he wants with the other half. At one point, Costas asks T.O. about the accidental overdose from last week. T.O. gets mad and starts ranting at Costas, looming over him, poking at him, and touching him constantly during his answer. Who would get the bulk of the outrage there, Costas or T.O.? Would T.O. come under fire from all angles for his intimidating behavior towards a smaller reporter, or would people get on Costas for asking the question?
