Not to be weirdly glib, but as a reporter, you should be honest all the time.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It might sound glib, but in a sense, as an actor I'm a journalist and a psychologist recording life and truth.
I've been a reporter for 20 years, and I don't ever get things wrong. That's important in terms of my professional status.
I've always thought of myself as a reporter.
I was once a journalist. And I think of myself as a journalist, and that's it. You tell the truth. I even wrote a book called 'The Truth'.
As a reporter you tend to seek coherence from your subject or your source - it all needs to add up and make sense. In truth, in reality, there's often a great deal of murkiness and muddiness, confusion and contradiction.
If you're going to be in the business of news and telling people the truth... you've got to be honest. You've got to have the same rules for yourself as you do for everyone else.
In most daily journalism, you only fact-check something if it seems a little fishy.
I would never have been a good reporter because I am not accurate regarding facts.
Sometimes, in a fictional story, you can be more honest and truthful, actually. As a journalist, you're a prisoner of the data, in effect. You have to tell the story with evidence you can verify.
I can be glib and truthful all at once.
