If you are a reliable, honest journalist, sources will open up and trust you and share good information.
From Wolf Blitzer
My best stories come from well-placed sources who point me in the right direction.
My goal is to make the viewer a little bit smarter.
I eat right. I exercise. I run 5 miles a day on the treadmill.
My rule of thumb is that if I am interested or intrigued by something, others will be as well.
My inclination, as an old-school, classically trained journalist, is not to go with a story unless I have it hard. It's not good enough to say something based on rumors that were flying around.
When I finished grad school, I sort of fell into journalism. Someone mentioned that there was an entry-level job at the Reuters News Agency. I applied, and, to my amazement, I got the job.
I love politics.
Two hours on television just doesn't automatically happen. I'm up early, I'm reading newspapers online, talking to my staff, coming up with ideas.
I'm a season ticket holder to the Washington Wizards, and I love going to Washington Nationals and Redskins games.
