By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, journalism keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community.

If journalism is good, it is controversial, by its nature.

Speaking generally, people who are drawn to journalism are interested in what happens from the ground up less than they are from the top down.

I think people should be consumers of journalism.

The central dilemma in journalism is that you don't know what you don't know.

Look, everybody in journalism has a reputation of sorts.

People, even independently minded people, do to an extent draw their impressions from what they are told, especially if they are told it incessantly by newspapers.

The thing that bothers me about journalism is the false equivalency we sometimes place on certain issues.

I think the key to being a journalist is getting your subject to feel comfortable enough to talk about stuff they want to talk about and the stuff they like and don't like, and still feel comfortable about it.

You're required to be outspoken in journalism, and in television you're exposed anyway, because everyone watches it.
