When a reporter sits down at the typewriter, he's nobody's friend.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If a reporter doesn't like the person he's writing about, it shows up in his article.
A friend to all is a friend to none.
It is not often that someone comes along who is a true friend and a good writer.
Writers seldom choose as friends those self-contained characters who are never in trouble, never unhappy or ill, never make mistakes and always count their change when it is handed to them.
Most people don't actually like the press. The friend of my enemy is not necessarily my friend.
At the typewriter you find out who you are.
A friend is nothing but a known enemy.
There is no friend as loyal as a book.
A veteran journalist has never had time to think twice before he writes.
Everybody has a smartphone; everyone is a reporter.
