Syrian regime media: interview?

I was contacted by someone from Syrian regime news station (Al-Ikhbariyyah As-Suriyyah).  I normally don't answer my phone but the phone kept ringing. I finally answered. The man introduced himself as someone from Syrian regime news station and that he wanted to interview me.  He said it was for a show the next day.  I said: you only want me to attack Syrian rebels but I will make sure to attack Syrian regime. I explained that I will abide by my own standards and not by the standards of the Syrian regime.  I said that I will put you in an awkward spot and may cause your firing from the station. He said: but why are you against the Syrian regime? I said: you really want me to give you a lecture about my stance on Syria now?  It was clear that he does not know who I am and has never read a word by me.  I said: you may read some of my writings on Syria. He said: where can I find your writings? Do you have a page on Facebook? I said: yes, I do.
