Journalism is, indeed, a noble calling, and I have much I hope to accomplish in the next phase of my career.

Journalism makes you think fast. You have to speak to people in all walks of life. Especially local journalism.

The dirty little secret of journalism is that it really isn't a profession, it's a craft. All you need is a telephone and a conscience and you're all set.

There are a lot of really good skills you get from doing journalism - it completely changed my world and how I interact with other people.

Journalism is a craft that takes years to learn. It's like golf. You never get it right all the time. It's a game of fewer errors, better facts, and better reporting.

I'm fascinated by journalism. I put a keen eye, not a negative eye, on its role, particularly how it is changed by the times we're living in.

Journalism: an ability to meet the challenge of filling the space.

Journalism will kill you, but it will keep you alive while you're at it.

Journalism is a kind of profession, or craft, or racket, for people who never wanted to grow up and go out into the real world.

In essence, I see the value of journalism as resting in a twofold mission: informing the public of accurate and vital information, and its unique ability to provide a truly adversarial check on those in power.
