Hello michel123,

It's not perfect, but I hope it's close enough:

"Wall Street Journal Report With Maria Bartiromo" (NBC - NBC Network -
Sun Jan 30 2005 at 5:00 AM PST - 30 minutes)
Google Video [beta]

[0 minutes to 2 minutes]
http://video.google.com/videopreview?docid=1692253451855759002

[2 minutes 30 seconds to 4 minutes 30 seconds]
http://video.google.com/videopreview?q=export&docid=1692253451855759002

[5 minutes to 7 minutes]
http://video.google.com/videopreview?q=perspective&docid=1692253451855759002

It appears that the interview segment goes from 1 minutes 30 seconds
to 5 minutes 30 seconds, and is followed by a clip from the President
of OPEC, and then an interview with CEO Hank Greenberg.  The following
section does not appear to contain further interview with Daniel
Vasella:

[7 minutes 30 seconds to 9 minutes 30 seconds]
http://video.google.com/videopreview?q=evan&docid=1692253451855759002

The transcript is imperfect.  Google Video Help indicates how the text
was transcribed, and what you can do if you find glitches:

"Google Video Help"

You might be able to catch the interview again, using the link to
"Upcoming episodes" on the left side of the transcript pages.

Search strategy:

Searched Google Video for:

"wall street journal report"

Searched this show to find keywords that would allow each portion of
the show to be displayed (a process that could take as long as the
answer to describe!).

Hi justaskscott, 

Thanks for your answer. Could you tell me exactely how you did find
the 3 first links on google video search.

Certainly.  I'll leave out the trial-and-error of my actual search,
and just give you the method at which I arrived.

Starting at the original page --
http://video.google.com/videopreview?docid=1692253451855759002 -- I
searched for a word from the last portion (2 minutes) that I thought
would be uncommon in the remainder of the transcript. In this case,
"mccain":

http://video.google.com/videopreview?q=mccain&docid=1692253451855759002

As you see, that brings up the segment from 2 minutes to 4 minutes. 
If I had searched for a more common word, Google Video would have
found several occurrences throughout the transcript, such as:

http://video.google.com/videopreview?q=they&docid=1692253451855759002

The "mccain" search identified one occurrence of that term, and then
presented the next four portions of the transcript, even though they
lack the term.

Using the results of the "mccain" search, I was able to find a
similarly uncommon word in the 2 minutes 30 seconds portion, and
search for it.  (I probably should have chosen something more unlikely
than "export," but it worked.)

http://video.google.com/videopreview?q=export&docid=1692253451855759002

I then repeated this process, searching for "possies" from the 4
minutes 30 seconds portion, then for "perspectives" from the 5 minutes
portion (again, perhaps not the best choice) ... and so on for the
other segments.

Complicated, but effective.
