You can be a great reporter and not be such a great talk show host.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I don't think I'd be a very good talk show host. I mean, I'm very talkative but I don't know if I could do that all the time.
I wouldn't want to be a talk show host. That's another awkward compliment people make. 'You should have your own talk show.' And I think, no thank you.
I am not one of the great journalists of my time.
I'm a terrible interviewer. I'm not a journalist - although I have a Peabody Award - and I'm not really a late-night host. What I am is honest.
I've always thought of myself as a reporter.
I never thought I would become a television host, but I never thought anybody would pay me to just talk.
I'm a talk-show host, I'm going to be a talk-show host.
My job as a television anchor or television reporter is not to proselytize.
I would never have been a good reporter because I am not accurate regarding facts.
Someday perhaps I'll have to get a grownup job... but for now I'm having too much fun being a reporter.
