Quote

In a very straightforward way, I am a terrible reporter. I'm not someone who can go into a story and not get involved.

I think as an investigative reporter I had tough standards, but I don't think of myself as a tough person.

I'm a lousy journalist.

I make friends faster and easier than journalists.

I am not one of the great journalists of my time.

I'm a reporter - if I don't interview someone, I don't have much to say, and I definitely can't just sit down and knock out 800 words on any subject you give me.

I've always thought of myself as a reporter.

If you're a good journalist, what you do is live a lot of things vicariously, and report them for other people who want to live vicariously.

I'm an inexperienced reporter, and I'm still learning.
