Journalism is about results. It's about affecting your community or your society in the most progressive way.

Journalism is what we need to make democracy work.

Journalism still, in a democracy, is the essential force to get the public educated and mobilized to take action on behalf of our ancient ideals.

I still believe that if your aim is to change the world, journalism is a more immediate short-term weapon.

The fundamentals of what journalism is about don't necessarily change. What will change is the delivery of news.

Ultimately journalism has changed... partisanship is very much a part of journalism now.

I think journalism is a great way to do public service, to have an impact on your community.

I don't think journalism changes. It's about digging into stories and telling them well. The basic tenets of great reporting stay the same while things around it change. Technology has made reporting easier, but it has also caused job loss. Social media has increased discussion around topics, but it has its own challenges at times.

In essence, I see the value of journalism as resting in a twofold mission: informing the public of accurate and vital information, and its unique ability to provide a truly adversarial check on those in power.

Journalism has changed tremendously because of the democratization of information. Anybody can put something up on the Internet. It's harder and harder to find what the truth is.
