Quote

Even though it has been very painful, lots of opportunities have come forward journalistically. Once all of this blows over, I think it might actually help that I have gotten this attention.

I see myself as a recovering journalist.

I know I haven't said a lot of things I'm quoted as saying in the papers. It makes me wonder why I brought up the recovery story in the first place.

Every time I am in danger of believing the glamour of my own press, some incident inevitably brings me back to earth.

I have been under assault by the liberal media in the United States.

The press have given me affairs I've never had and killed a few I did have. After a while, you learn.

I'm lucky that, despite all the bad press I've had over the years, the public still seems to like me.

I have taken a break from the media spotlight for the past few years.

I became a journalist partly so that I wouldn't ever have to rely on the press for my information.

In journalism I can only tell what happened. In fiction, I can show it.
