My greatest fear in the state of Maine: newspapers. I'm not a fan of newspapers.

Terrorism has come to publishing. It is a grave concern when criticism is turned to mortal threats.

Unfortunately, the attitude of many towards the press, humanitarians included and especially government workers, is often one of suspicion, if not outright fear.

A newspaper is a public trust, and we will suffer as a society without them. It is not the Internet that has killed them. It is their own greed, it is their own stupidity, and it is capitalism that has taken our daily newspapers from us.

I do think the biggest problem newspapers have is loss of trust, and I feel that's a result of failure to speak truth to power.

There is a long history of newspapers being doomed. They were doomed by radio. They were doomed by television. They were probably doomed by the telegraph way back when.

Many journalists seem to believe that we have become little different from our enemies.
