Bit Quotes
With the intrusion, and maybe rightly so, of legal concerns, medical concerns, business concerns, maybe some of that might be changing sports journalism a little bit - and maybe should change. The sports reporters of today - the good ones, anyway, working for good news organizations - shouldn't be held to any less stringent professional and ethical standards than any other journalist.

Bunch Quotes
There are elements to the story that, if handled well, can help improve the way the public perceives the press. The other thing is that the press is doing a bunch of things that are new. They are reading e-mails, saying, 'I am looking for my nephew ... so-and-so, if you can hear me, please call.' That's community journalism on a national scale and I think that will go a long way to demonstrate that the press is doing more than just thrill seeking.

Along Quotes
Mr. Brokaw's successive accomplishments in broadcast journalism over the last 40 years, along with his more recent achievements in documentary reporting and authorship, have enlightened audiences, providing them with a unique perspective on our nation and its past, and stirring within them a passion about the historical events that have shaped our present day, ...

Athletes Quotes

Anyone Quotes
One thing I remember most vividly about Opal Eckert is that she could teach any kind of class - from the most basic high school English composition class to the highest level journalism class at the university. The Journalism Department at Northwest was in the basement of Colden Hall at the time she taught there. I remember that she was always there. She had more energy - give her something to do and she would just pitch right in and do it. She was unfailingly courteous, nice, businesslike and she always remembered names. She will leave a real hole in the world of journalism in northwest Missouri. I don't know anyone who has worked as hard or contributed as much as Opal Eckert.

Balance Quotes
Journalism is the only profession explicitly protected by the U.S. Constitution, because journalists are supposed to be the check and balance on government. We're supposed to be holding those in power accountable. We're not supposed to be their megaphone. That's what the corporate media have become.

Bass Quotes
Journalism is my first love. But music comes in a close second. What's important for me is that whatever you do, whatever your passion is, you should have another passion - something in your life. And when I put on that musician hat and I put the bass in my hands, I'm not Lester Holt the TV guy anymore. I'm just Lester Holt who likes music.

Addicted Quotes
It is "lifestyle" journalism the way Chaucer first invented it, and the Times, onto a good thing, is uninhibitedly publishing articles on the passing of a cuckolded poet, a rock promoter strangely addicted to collecting orangutans and an Italian writer striving "to avoid becoming a bore.

Easiest Quotes
Just as there are moments when the words flow and it feels like the easiest job in the world, there are many more when I think I have nothing to say, and my journalism training taught me that writing is a job, that you write whether you are inspired or not, and that the only way to unlock creativity is to write through it.

Conversation Quotes
Photojournalism provokes conversation and thought, which all good journalism should do. The exhibition provides an excellent teaching opportunity, fostering discussion about how we cover events of our time and the needs of society, while talking about the profession and craft of journalism.
