I'm Proud To Say I've Never Been

Foreign News Is Considered An Expletive. Thoughtfully Written Analysis Is Out, 'live Pops' Are In. 'action Jackson' Is The Cry. Hire Lookers, Not Writers. Do Powder Puff, Not Probing Interviews. Stay Away From Controversial Subjects. Kiss Ass, Move With The Mass, And For Heaven And Rating's Sake, Don't Make Anybody Mad- - Certainly Not Anybody You're Covering, And Especially Not The Mayor, The Governor, The Senator, The President Or The Vice-president Or Anybody In A Position Of Power. Make Nice, Not News.

I Had Someone At The Houston Police Station Shoot Me With Heroin So I Could Do A Story About It. The Experience Was A Special Kind Of Hell. I Came Out Understanding Full Well How One Could Be Addicted To 'smack,' And Quickly.

It's A Legitimate Point To Debate. But It's Part Of The Reality. It's Happening, But It's Also True They (looters) Are In The Distinct Minority. I Think There's A Hero On Every Street Corner In New Orleans, And I Think The Reporting Has Shown That. I Think The Balance Has Been There.

Anyone Who Says Network News Cannot Be Profitable Doesn't Know What He Is Talking About. But Anyone Who Says It Must "always," Make Money Is Misguided And Irresponsible.

I've Never Believed In Measuring One's Worth By The Size Of His Or Her Bank Account. I Prefer To Look At Distance Traveled.
