I'm a news junkie who's constantly reading newspapers and magazines. I look around and see what's happening in the world.

I'm still a news junkie. I mean, I always was, I am now.

We're news junkies in my house.

I am a hard-news journalist. That is what I do.

I am a political junkie. During a presidential campaign, I will often buy a couple of newspapers a day just to keep up.

People can get their news any way they want. What I love about what's happened is that there are so many different avenues, there are so many different outlets, so many different ways to debate and discuss and to inquire about any given news story.

I'm steeped in the news because I enjoy the news - I like reading papers, I like reading the blogs, I love talking to newsmakers and pundits, for that matter, about their opinions. I'm an information gatherer by nature, so that's what attracted me about this industry.

There is always sleaze in the news. And you know what? The news is always a combination of things that are interesting and things that are important.

The truth is I don't watch a lot of news, except for when I'm here at the office watching Fox News. I get my news online primarily when I'm not watching the channel.
