I think if you look at the failure of journalism in the modern age, then I don't want to be called a journalist.

Look, everybody in journalism has a reputation of sorts.

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

Journalism is a flawed profession, but it has a self-correcting mechanism. The rule of journalism is: talk to everybody.

I don't trust a lot of journalists.

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.

Don't call me a journalist; I hate the word. It's pretentious!

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

Don't pretend to be a journalist if you're not a journalist.

Some of our best journalists take themselves even more seriously than the politicians they write about.
