Marty Goldensohn Quotations

I think that it is wonderful that Swarthmore as a college gets all this exposure. It is something that they can be completely and totally proud of, because all of the students are using all that they learn here to do this.

This is the real world. You have a deadline. You have to write in such a way that not just a sophisticated professor can understand it, but the average person.

All press seems to open doors to other press. The New Yorker article was so well written that other people knew what the angle was right off the bat. News media is a cascade. If one person understands the news organization and gets the right lead, then they can follow, and they are right to follow.

I love it, and it never ends. We used to be excited when a newspaper that no one had ever heard of called to do a piece on us, but now we are jaded. Now we want to know if it is local or national. If you look at The New York Times for Monday, Feb. 20, on the front page was a story of Americans redecorating their garages. It makes you wonder who decides what is important. This new media attention is restoring my faith in the press.
