Tina Brown Quotes

The Daily Beast’ and Howard Kurtz have parted company Picture Quote #1

Any great, long career has at least one flameout in it Picture Quote #1

‘Wingnuts’ is the first book bearing the imprint of Beast Books Picture Quote #1

In all the debate about Afghanistan, we don’t hear much about our obligation to the wretched lives of Afghan women. They are being treated as collateral damage as the big boys discuss geopolitical goals Picture Quote #1

In today’s gig economy, where jobs have been replaced by ‘portfolios of projects,’ most people find themselves doing more things less well for two-thirds of the money Picture Quote #1

Captain Richard Phillips of the good ship Maersk Alabama - and Sully Sullenberger splashing down his crippled airliner in the Hudson River - broke through the poisonous smog of economic depression and Wall Street skullduggery with a reminder that pure individual heroism is a daily occurrence if we know where to look for it Picture Quote #1

The viral power of online media has proven how fast creative ideas can be spread and adopted, using tools like cellphones, digital cameras, micro-credit, mobile banking, Facebook, and Twitter. A perfect example? The way the Green Movement in Iran caught fire thanks to social media Picture Quote #1

Who was Amanda Knox? Was she a fresh-faced honor student from Seattle who met anyone’s definition of an all-American girl - attractive, athletic, smart, hard-working, adventuresome, in love with languages and travel? Or was her pretty face a mask, a duplicitous cover for a depraved soul? Picture Quote #1

For Sarah Palin, the least experienced on the world stage, the stress of maintaining the fiction that she was qualified to be vice president sent her over the deep end almost immediately. She went off on a ferocious spending spree that might have killed a lesser woman. Katie Couric’s straightforward questions unraveled her Picture Quote #1

I am thrilled to share the news that Andrew Sullivan is bringing his trailblazing journalism to ‘The Daily Beast.’ Picture Quote #1

With so many part-time people on - and not on - the job, corporate America has started to feel like it’s on a permanent maternity leave. Colleagues are an amorphous, free-floating army of rotating waifs whose voicemails are clogged with plaintive requests from their own offices for missing information Picture Quote #1

Periodically, ‘The New York Times’ runs a business news story lamenting how few women still make it to the top in the Wall Street boys’ club. Could it be that women are choosing to be conscientious objectors in these wars of one against all? Picture Quote #1

Hillary Clinton has spent her entire career looking bug-eyed with incredulity when an interviewer asks her whatever question she most expects at that moment Picture Quote #1

No one is asking for an Oprah in Chief. Anyhow, Obama is too chilly by nature ever to be convincing as a human care package Picture Quote #1

Your normal Wall Street big-swinging Richard has enough of a lingering moral compass to at least tell himself that his wizardry benefits somebody or something besides himself. You know, his cleverness makes capital markets more efficient. It provides credit to productive enterprise. Whatever Picture Quote #1

TV journalism is a much more collaborative, horizontal business than print reporting. It has to be, because of the logistics. Anchors are wholly dependent on producers to do all the hustling Picture Quote #1

Obama, for all his brilliance, has no real, felt understanding of management structures or of business Picture Quote #1

Out of the box’ corporate thinking helped carry real American innovation out in a box. A pine box Picture Quote #1

The natural creativity of the staff morphed ‘The Daily Beast’ very fast into what has become a newsroom. Aggregation lives on the Cheat Sheet, the video player, and in the breaking news slot in the first big box. The rest is all original, generated by Beast writers and editors Picture Quote #1

By the end of ‘Game Change,’ one feels that the candidates’ few happy moments are those when they ‘lose it.’ Picture Quote #1

Obama has figured out the best method to prepare the way for his verbal Houdini acts: Use political noise as the tune-up din before the aria. Perhaps his body temperature is so low, it sometimes takes him too long to break out the song Picture Quote #1

Prince William’s smiling hostility toward the press is his non-negotiable core value. I am told he is so protective of his privacy he has been known to plant false tips with friends he distrusts and watch the media to see if they play out Picture Quote #1

I haven’t spent years, like Alyse Nelson of Vital Voices, toiling for female economic empowerment on five continents Picture Quote #1

The 2008 financial crisis is usually attributed to vampire squid greed. There was certainly a lot of that. But it was also just as likely to have been caused by the chaos of process created by those big, sexy bank mergers when, in the name of ‘economies of scale,’ critical members of the trust and responsibility chain were cavalierly eliminated Picture Quote #1

One of the the great things about having had something that didn’t work out is: So what? I am fine Picture Quote #1

Now everyone leaking and tweeting and posting on everyone else is the acknowledged way to get ahead in the 21st century Picture Quote #1

When I took over ‘The New Yorker,’ there was a very, very good, smart staff in place Picture Quote #1

What does it take to be a great social chronicler? Perhaps one of the key attributes is an understanding of what it feels like to fall from grace Picture Quote #1

Obama fans become more and more glum that he keeps flubbing the very role he was expected to be so good at: Therapist to the nation. The Great Comforter Picture Quote #1

You can get an interview with anyone overseas on the basis of being part of ‘Newsweek.’ It still has a great deal of impact Picture Quote #1
