innocence innocent drink
Meet them once and you're innocent; meet them twice and you're not. So if you see me having drinks again with Harvey Weinstein then, okay, you've got me.
powerful school dynasty
I didn't go to the right schools, didn't come from a well-known family, nor was I even remotely connected to a powerful publishing dynasty.
effort way losing
It seems to me we are losing our way in an effort to get the ratings.
war nsa giving
Please give reason. Raised taxes; marching us off to war again; approved more NSA snooping. WHO ARE THEY?!
brother men world
With a modem, anyone can follow the world and report on the world-no middle man, no big brother. I guess this changes everything.
voice eras citizens
We have entered an era vibrating with the din of small voices. Every citizen can be a reporter, can take on the powers that be.
government media
The media is comparable to government-probably passes government in raw power.
media television news
Television saved the movies. The Internet is going to save the news business.
giving stories attention
A lot of the stories are internal. They leak it to me wanting to get attention, wanting to get that headline. More times than not, I will not give it to them.
internet tandem presses
The Internet feeds off the main press, and the main press feeds off the Internet. They're working in tandem.

If the first lady is concerned about this Internet cycle, what would she have done during the heyday when there was 12, 13 editions of a paper in one day? What would she have done with that news cycle?
news-stories gossip months
Some of the best news stories start in gossip. Monica Lewinsky certainly was gossip in the beginning. I had heard it months before I printed it.
technology liberty want
If technology has finally caught up with individual liberty, why would anyone who loves freedom want to rethink that?
reason participation reports
I envision a future where there'll be 300 million reporters, where anyone from anywhere can report for any reason. It's freedom of participation absolutely realized.
