Deadline ABC has approached me...

I think it would be unrealistic to assume they will not try to spin the interview as they see fit in the editing room. I would do as other suggested and buy yourself a button(concealed) hidden camera to go around with you while their filming if you have to debunk any spin they use down the line.
When its all said in done this is going to be free publicity that will reach lots of people and as they say there is no such thing as bad publicity.
For what its worth I say go for it.

Mike,
As far as I know, McQueen is not sporting a pair of DD's.

Nope.
He's selling an image and lifestyle.
Will that appeal to all or even most people? No.
Will it appeal to enough people to make it worth his while? Yes.
I am honestly shaking my head at this thread.
Too many risk averse pussies.
agree with everyone saying to do it. free advertising and great opportunity. and yeah they will try to paint you as a someone with no game

If you wanted to go public, this would be a good way to do it.
That said, you may not want to go public, or you may want to go public on your terms i.e. one where you have control over the presentation.
I'm sure you're familiar with ABC's previous attack on the manosphere. Don't be surprised if this isn't something similar. Also be prepared to have your identity exposed and for publicity or television piece never to materialize, like the previous ABC piece that was pulled when they didn't get the response they wanted. Or if the piece isn't about what they say it is. The final product will be beyond your control.
You'd be using them for publicity, and they'd be using you for sensationalism. Gotta see if for what it is. Just depends how bad you want the publicity and if you're comfortable with those terms.
Personally, I wouldn't. As the Bagavaghita says, you have to take actions independent of the fruits they give. If I was to do this, I'd just be looking at the dollar signs at the end of the tunnel, and the process might leave me feeling disgusted. But then again, I'm also not in this as a primary career, so my values are different.

^this. Good idea. Though it might be expensive.

NBC the network who made the "error" in the George Zimmerman 911 tape to help portray him as a racist by removing the dispatcher comments.

No doubt they will pull some Zimmerman editing shit on Christian as well.
Go for it. Good luck, it will help book sales.
It's not about being "risk-averse," Mike, it's about not shooting your wad prematurely.
I shake my head at the idea that McQueen needs to forfeit his privacy and anonymity for some fleeting z-list "celebrity."
It's a womanish thirst for attention at any cost.

Do it Christian, you're one of the coolest guys I've met and know, I know you'll come across brilliantly on camera no matter how they show it. You'll be fine and you'll make good income for yourself through the show and your books. All that hard work paying off bro, from the streets to the big screen.
ABC Nightline.
Lmfao my typos know no bounds.
Loving the advice guys, keep it coming.

If your goal is to continue living your life the way you do, and making a killing at it, possibly even reaching a level where you can utilize some fame game...
Then I think you have everything to gain and very little to lose.
