I’m not besotted with the notion of being on CNN to the point that I’m going to suddenly morph into Anderson Cooper or Christiane Amanpour. I’m not a foreign correspondent.

I go on The Daily Beast. The Daily Beast is one of the websites that I check out.

A newspaper is a device for making the ignorant more ignorant and the crazy crazier.

I’ve been reading tabloids since I was nine. I love a good story.

Ought 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.

People hear about stuff from their friends or a magazine or a newspaper.

Journalism largely consists of saying ‚Lord Jones is Dead‘ to people who never knew that Lord Jones was alive.

One Ad is worth more to a paper than forty Editorials.

The press is the hired agent of a monied system, and set up for no other purpose than to tell lies where their interests are involved. One can trust nobody and nothing.

Newspapers 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.

With the possible exception of things like box scores, race results, and stock market tabulations, there is no such thing as Objective Journalism. The phrase itself is a pompous contradiction in terms.

The press is the enemy.

Watergate 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.

Headlines, in a way, are what mislead you because bad news is a headline, and gradual improvement is not.

All in all, I just don’t trust journalists – and I don’t think it’s a good practice for me to trust journalists.

The difference between literature and journalism is that journalism is unreadable and literature is not read.

I don’t think the Christian Right dominates America in the way some in the media believe they do.

There should be a law that no ordinary newspaper should be allowed to write about art. The harm they do by their foolish and random writing it would be impossible to overestimate – not to the artist, but to the public, blinding them to all but harming the artist not at all.

We’re news junkies in my house.

I 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.

We are all the President’s men.

I became a journalist partly so that I wouldn’t ever have to rely on the press for my information.

I don’t think that my kind of journalism has ever been universally popular. It’s lonely out here.

Well, when you come down to it, I don’t see that a reporter could do much to a president, do you?

If 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.

People who read the tabloids deserve to be lied to.

Journalists are like dogs, when ever anything moves they begin to bark.

Fortunately, we have help from the media. I have to say this: I’m very grateful for the support and kindness that we’ve gotten. People have respected their privacy and in that way, I think, you know, no matter what people may feel about my husband’s policies or what have you, they care about children and that’s been good to see.

Many people listen to what I have to say and I appear a lot in media, so therefore I influence a lot of people and therefore I have a bigger responsibility because I have a bigger platform.

A free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad.

In America the President reigns for four years, and Journalism governs forever and ever.

The most violent show on TV is the six o’clock news.

I’ve already become a mastodon in print – I don’t see a consciousness for my kind of journalism.

Truthfully, without over-egging it, as I often do, the library and journalism, those things made me who I am.

The major networks, the cable networks, they’re being prosecutors. They’re judges and jurors and executioners. Well, c’mon, that’s ridiculous. But they’re doing it.

I have such respect for ‚Democracy Now!‘

Journalism keeps you planted in the earth.

In 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.

On TV the people can see it. On radio you’ve got to create it.

Newspaper readership is still growing in India.

You do get certain publications in the States where, if things don’t go according to plan, they flip the story and it becomes very negative.

Digital technology allows us a much larger scope to tell stories that were pretty much the grounds of the literary media.

I became a journalist because one didn’t have to specialise.

Where the press is free and every man able to read, all is safe.

The smarter the journalists are, the better off society is. For to a degree, people read the press to inform themselves – and the better the teacher, the better the student body.

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‘.

It’s amazing that the amount of news that happens in the world every day always just exactly fits the newspaper.

I 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.

Everybody is entertained to death.

Our 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.

By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, journalism keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community.

The money in politics is a cash cow for the media.

Sometimes 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.

Journalism is popular, but it is popular mainly as fiction. Life is one world, and life seen in the newspapers is another.

I 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.

All 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.

Early in life I had noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper.

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

Sure, 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?

I 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.

His 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.
