Thanks Hawk,
I would love to share the interview with everyone, and maybe eventually I will. But, I did not explicitly request permission to distribute audio of the interview over the net from J. R. Brown, only permission to "use its contents for publication."
Ethically, it just does not feel right to go posting it to the net. I am sure that I am covered legally, but I am bound to a journalistic code of ethics, as well as my own personal values.
I have sent it to a few close friends. I did this to gather feedback and to assist in writing the article. I don't see how that is any different from inviting friends over to my house to listen to a recorded conversation for the same purpose, but I cannot spread it any further at this point for the aforementioned reasons.
Plus, this could jeopardize any future interview prospects with Watchtower officials, which I do not want to do.
I would also like to ask those who have heard it to refrain from discussing it on public internet forums like this one.
Thanks for understanding.

If anyone would like more details about the interview, email me privately at [email protected].
Please understand that I must treat my source materials with great care, so that I do not jeopardize the series of articles that I have been working on since March.
Thanks,

He conducted himself in a cordial manner. Considering the questions I was posing, I thought he behaved like a gentleman.
I don't agree with his views. I think he is as brainwashed as any of us were. But, let's not be childish and paint people as monsters. We were there once too.
Maybe I am not the one who needs to learn.

In all fairness, I found J. R. Brown to be a gentleman.

He also said, regarding the rape policy:
Weve had a fairly consistent policy.
