I think that the press has a duty and an obligation to report on local government, state government, federal government - to be aggressive, to do its job. And its job is to report on whatever it's covering.

I don't accept at all the quite popular argument that the press is responsible for the monarchy's recent troubles. The monarchy's responsible for the monarchy's recent troubles. To blame the press is the old thing of blaming the messenger for the message.

The job of the press is to encourage debate, not to supply the public with information.

The most important responsibility we have as journalists is to question those who are in power. I honestly believe that.

The press is the hired agent of a monied system, and set up for no other purpose than to tell lies where their interests are involved. One can trust nobody and nothing.

I think the relation between the monarchy and the press is very much a two-way street.

I absolutely reject that idea that the press is liberal and what it does is liberal. In my view, it's like accusing a doctor of malpractice or a lawyer of malfeasance.

The British press has been unfair to me and the public has followed.

I'm not going to make general comments about the British press.

Pandering to the scandal hungry public is a total lack of responsible journalism.
