Journalism Quotes

A good writer should be able to write comedic work that made you laugh, and scary stuff that made you scared, and fantasy or science fiction that imbued you with a sense of wonder, and mainstream journalism that gave you clear and concise information in a way that you wanted it Picture Quote #1

In journalism just one fact that is false prejudices the entire work. In contrast, in fiction one single fact that is true gives legitimacy to the entire work. That’s the only difference, and it lies in the commitment of the writer. A novelist can do anything he wants so long as he makes people believe in it Picture Quote #1

If you aren’t just brought up in your tribe but interact with other people either directly or vicariously, through journalism and literature, you see what life is like from other points of view and are less likely to demonize them or dehumanize others and more likely to empathize with them Picture Quote #1

The whole notion of journalism being an institution whose fundamental purpose is to educate and inform and even, one might say, elevate, has altered under commercial pressure, perhaps, into a different kind of purpose, which is to divert and distract and entertain Picture Quote #1

I started in business journalism from the outside, so when I started writing about markets and business, I was struck by the fact that markets seemed to work well even though people are often irrational, lack good information and are not perfect in the way they think about decisions Picture Quote #1

Journalism classes teach us that one must extract oneself from the story in order to report without bias, but often we need to be in the story in order to understand, to connect, to help the audience identify or else it has no heart; it could be a robot telling the story, for all anyone cares Picture Quote #1

From journalism I learned to write under pressure, to work with deadlines, to have limited space and time, to conduct and interview, to find information, to research, and above all, to use language as efficiently as possible and to remember always that there is a reader out there Picture Quote #1

There is much to be said in favor of modern journalism. By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community. By carefully chronicling the current events of contemporary life, it shows us of what very little importance such events really are. By invariably discussing the unnecessary, it makes us understand what things are requisite for culture, and what are not Picture Quote #1

Journalism: A profession whose business is to explain to others what it personally does not understand Picture Quote #1

Good journalism, I think, represents life and if you try to organize something too neatly it usually blows up in your face and doesn’t really happen the way you want it to Picture Quote #1

One of the sad things about contemporary journalism is that it actually matters very little. The world now is almost inured to the power of journalism. The best journalism would manage to outrage people. And people are less and less inclined to outrage Picture Quote #1

Journalism constructs momentarily arrested equilibriums and gives disorder an implied order. That is already two steps from reality Picture Quote #1

Internet journalism is not a world we know very well at all. It’s conducted more on the screen and less in bars, which makes it rather less useful for getting stories about people throwing up over one another, which is what one’s after Picture Quote #1

The journalism school helped me develop writing skills, and I had been enjoying cartooning from a very young age. My interest in puppetry, however, came much later Picture Quote #1

There’s no worse crime in journalism these days than simply deciding something’s a story because Drudge links to it Picture Quote #1

Rock journalism is people who can’t write, interviewing people who can’t talk, in order to provide articles for people who can’t read Picture Quote #1

You can’t publish a paper on physics without the full experimental data and results; that should be the standard in journalism Picture Quote #1

I call it cut and paste journalism. It’s very convenient, very easy, very useful. and very dishonest Picture Quote #1

The truth is whatever you can get away with. No, that’s journalism. The truth is whatever you can’t escape Picture Quote #1

It is one of the paradoxes of journalism: The more servile a reporter is toward his sources, the more authoritative he can appear in print Picture Quote #1

Exaggeration of every kind is as essential to journalism as it is to dramatic art, for the object of journalism is to make events go as far as possible Picture Quote #1

A composite is a euphemism for a lie. It’s disorderly. It’s dishonest and it’s not journalism Picture Quote #1

I don’t think that my kind of journalism has ever been universally popular. It’s lonely out here Picture Quote #1

Journalism is popular, but it is popular mainly as fiction. Life is one world, and life seen in the newspapers is another Picture Quote #1

History, like journalism, is ever a journey outwards, and you must report back what you find and no more Picture Quote #1

In most daily journalism, you only fact-check something if it seems a little fishy Picture Quote #1

If there are three words that need to be used more in American journalism, commentary, politics, personal life... it’s the magic words ‘I don’t know.’ Picture Quote #1

‘Ugly Betty’ has opened my eyes to the world of fashion journalism - I’m looking forward to going to college for that. Until then, I don’t know. Will I appear on ‘Glee?’ Picture Quote #1

When I left Toronto and entered journalism in the late 1990s, I had many notions about the news business, nearly all of them wrong, as it turned out Picture Quote #1

My only advice is, follow your dream and do whatever you like to do the most. I chose journalism because I wanted to be in the places where history was being made Picture Quote #1
