If there's anything that's important to a reporter, it is integrity. It is credibility.
From Mike Wallace
Jack Kennedy was one year older than I was, and we attended the same neighborhood school.
I'm just not that comfortable writing so much about myself.
I was so low that I wanted to exit. And I took a bunch of pills, and they were sleeping pills. And at least they would put me to sleep, and maybe I wouldn't wake up, and that was fine.
All I'm armed with is research.
It's astonishing what you learn and feel and see along the way. That's why a reporter's job, as you know, is such a joy.
You're not a nutcase if you want to go see a psychiatrist.
To go around the world, to talk to almost anybody you want to talk to, to have enough time on the air, so that you could really tell a full story. What a voyage of discovery it was.
I even asked Eleanor Roosevelt difficult questions and she loved it.
I went to work when I was a young fellow and I loved what I did. And I just kept working. And when I decided that maybe the time had come for me to quit, I got depressed. What could I do if I didn't work?
