Newspapers do a good job telling me what happened yesterday, but they'd be a lot more impressive if they could tell me what's going to happen tomorrow.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's nice to know about something as soon as it happens, and obviously a newspaper can't provide that.
I follow a lot of news outlets on Twitter, so I'll just go skim through the headlines and see what's going on.
In journalism I can only tell what happened. In fiction, I can show it.
The newspaper is dying. I'm not sure there will be newspapers and its one business I'd never be in.
What is news? It's hard to quantify. Certainly news has changed completely, and the morning shows are not really designed to bring you the news, except to tell you what happened overnight, and the rest of it is a kind of magazine mentality - a little bit of this, a little bit of that. It's harder to be an educated and informed citizen.
I think newspapers will survive in some form or another.
Today's gossip is tomorrow's headline.
What happens tomorrow is going to happen tomorrow.
A reporter is always concerned with tomorrow. There's nothing tangible of yesterday. All I can say I've done is agitate the air ten or fifteen minutes and then boom - it's gone.
You turn on the news, there're no facts anymore. 'Here's what's happening today,' and then you cut to thirty minutes of people in little boxes, little windows, telling you their opinions on it. It seems like all the news is going on in the ticker-tape on the bottom of the news. It's all opinion, it's all editorial.
