Re: with or by?
Hi Vega,
I would use "by" because it is a passive tense. Please take a look at the following sentences:
1. The house was painted by Jack.
2. All prospective students are interviewed by alumni before a final decision is made.
3. At the end of the race the winner was interviewed by NBC news.
