I go on The Daily Beast. The Daily Beast is one of the websites that I check out.
Matthew McConaugheyWhere the press is free and every man able to read, all is safe.
Thomas JeffersonI 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‘.
Terry PratchettJournalism makes you think fast. You have to speak to people in all walks of life. Especially local journalism.
Terry PratchettOur most tragic error may have been our inability to establish a rapport and a confidence with the press and television with the communication media. I don’t think the press has understood me.
Lyndon B. JohnsonIf Jesus were here today, he wouldn’t be riding around on a donkey. He’d be taking a plane, he’d be using the media.
Joel OsteenOne Ad is worth more to a paper than forty Editorials.
Will RogersDigital technology allows us a much larger scope to tell stories that were pretty much the grounds of the literary media.
George LucasOn TV the people can see it. On radio you’ve got to create it.
Bob UeckerI have such respect for ‚Democracy Now!‘
Alice WalkerI became a journalist because one didn’t have to specialise.
Christopher HitchensHis father is governor of Media, and though he has the greatest command given him of all the rest of my generals, he still covetously desires more, and my being without issue spurs him on to this wicked design. But Philotas takes wrong measures.
Alexander the GreatEverybody is entertained to death.
Brian EnoHow poor are they that have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees?
William ShakespeareI prefer to be in a video than to play with it.
Karl LagerfeldNewspapers are the second hand of history. This hand, however, is usually not only of inferior metal to the other hands, it also seldom works properly.
Arthur SchopenhauerI get to hear the really good or the really bad things in the press, but I don’t read it. I can afford to say that because public opinion does not drive U2’s audience.
BonoIf anything, I get most upset because I wanna read a good paper first thing in the morning. And if I see a lie about myself flash across the front of the cover, I don’t think much of the rest of the newspaper.
Angelina JolieAll of the books in the world contain no more information than is broadcast as video in a single large American city in a single year. Not all bits have equal value.
Carl SaganI don’t think the intelligence reports are all that hot. Some days I get more out of the New York Times.
John F. KennedyWe’re news junkies in my house.
Stephen KingWinning the election is a good-news, bad-news kind of thing. Okay, now you’re the mayor. The bad news is, now you’re the mayor.
Clint EastwoodJournalism keeps you planted in the earth.
Ray BradburyOught we not to ask the media to agree among themselves a voluntary code of conduct, under which they would not say or show anything which could assist the terrorists‘ morale or their cause while the hijack lasted.
Margaret ThatcherAmerica is a country of inventors, and the greatest of inventors are the newspaper men.
Alexander Graham BellIf people in the media cannot decide whether they are in the business of reporting news or manufacturing propaganda, it is all the more important that the public understand that difference, and choose their news sources accordingly.
Thomas SowellBlinding ignorance does mislead us. O! Wretched mortals, open your eyes!
Leonardo da VinciIt’s amazing that the amount of news that happens in the world every day always just exactly fits the newspaper.
Jerry SeinfeldThe difference between literature and journalism is that journalism is unreadable and literature is not read.
Oscar WildeYou will always have partial points of view, and you’ll always have the story behind the story that hasn’t come out yet. And any form of journalism you’re involved with is going to be up against a biased viewpoint and partial knowledge.
Margaret AtwoodI love great journalism. I appreciate it. I love a good, you know, I love good news stories. I love great books. I love great articles. I appreciate them so much, and they’ve been part of my education as a woman.
Angelina JolieIn karting, in the European races, you have the cameras and the film crews and you do interviews. At around 13 I’d already started doing bit of media and it just increases more and more with every level you take, especially when you get into cars – and when you hit F1 it’s an even higher step up. It’s something you get used to over time.
Lando NorrisI read the NY Times but I don’t trust all of it.
David ByrneSometimes negative news does come out, but it is often exaggerated and manipulated to spread scandal. Journalists sometimes risk becoming ill from coprophilia and thus fomenting coprophagia: which is a sin that taints all men and women, that is, the tendency to focus on the negative rather than the positive aspects.
Pope FrancisWell, when you come down to it, I don’t see that a reporter could do much to a president, do you?
Dwight D. EisenhowerI’ve been reading tabloids since I was nine. I love a good story.
Lana Del ReyNewspaper readership is still growing in India.
Bill GatesI don’t think that my kind of journalism has ever been universally popular. It’s lonely out here.
Hunter S. ThompsonAll in all, I just don’t trust journalists – and I don’t think it’s a good practice for me to trust journalists.
Frank OceanI make pop culture.
Frank OceanI became a journalist at 17. A few hours later, I saw my first dead body, which was somewhat… colourful. That’s when I learned you can go on throwing up after you run out of things to throw up.
Terry PratchettEarly in life I had noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper.
George OrwellSure, women sportswriters look when they’re in the clubhouse. Read their stories. How else do you explain a capital letter in the middle of a word?
Bob UeckerWatergate had become the center of the media’s universe, and during the remaining year of my presidency the media tried to force everything else to revolve around it.
Richard M. NixonIn 2013, the week before I dropped ‚Crenshaw,‘ ‚Complex‘ wrote an article that said that Nipsey Hussle is one of the top 25 underperforming artists. I was so offended that I responded with my own opinion about these journalists – their point of view is not validated in our culture.
Nipsey HussleI know that if I had a television in my flat I would convince myself that everything on it was really interesting. I would say, ‚I’m a Celebrity – Get Me Out of Here!‘ is so sociologically fascinating that I think I’d better watch.
Brian EnoBy giving us the opinions of the uneducated, journalism keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community.
Oscar WildeI don’t really read a lot of newspapers. I don’t pay attention to what is being said or written about me. I’ve had lots of experiences in the past when I got too much into it. That sort of diverts your focus.
Virat KohliTruthfully, without over-egging it, as I often do, the library and journalism, those things made me who I am.
Terry PratchettFour hostile newspapers are more to be feared than a thousand bayonets.
Napoleon BonaparteIn America the President reigns for four years, and Journalism governs forever and ever.
Oscar WildePeople who read the tabloids deserve to be lied to.
Jerry SeinfeldI’m not searching for hard news; I’m not a journalist, but I’m interested in pushing to boundaries of where we can do the kind of stories that we want to do. I mean, it’s a big world and CNN has made it a lot bigger and they haven’t flinched.
Anthony BourdainAs far as I’m concerned, it’s a damned shame that a field as potentially dynamic and vital as journalism should be overrun with dullards, bums, and hacks, hag-ridden with myopia, apathy, and complacence, and generally stuck in a bog of stagnant mediocrity.
Hunter S. ThompsonWe are in the throes of a transition where every publication has to think of their digital strategy.
Bill GatesJournalism largely consists of saying ‚Lord Jones is Dead‘ to people who never knew that Lord Jones was alive.
Gilbert K. ChestertonTell me, why is the media here so negative? Why are we in India so embarrassed to recognise our own strengths, our achievements? We are such a great nation. We have so many amazing success stories but we refuse to acknowledge them. Why?
A. P. J. Abdul KalamWhen you’re faced with an opponent, the media asks the questions, and I answer truthfully. I don’t hold back.
Conor McGregorHere’s what I think about music and journalism: The most important thing is to just press play.
Frank OceanWhen you’re young, you look at television and think, there’s a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older, you realize that’s not true. The networks are in business to give people exactly what they want.
