Michael Wolff Quotations

When the source is a story. That's a softball question.

Let's focus on what the big deal is here,

Journalists and media people here are really distancing themselves from Judith Miller,

I think it is an understandable and pretty predictable course for him to take. Murdoch is a nervous guy. The idea that he might be missing out on something is awfully painful. But he is just dipping his toes in. Why buy these? Partly because he can afford them. He's not making big bets here.

I think this certainly is one of the biggest stories of our age. If the guy closest to the President has potentially committed a felony ... The President said, 'If anyone is involved in this in my administration, they're going to get fired.' ... If Karl Rove were out of business, that's a f-ing big story.

Playing on the 'Arsenio Hall Show' was a great experience. I got to play with my idols including Whitney Houston and BB King. I had a great band and we got to play live. It was a creative experience, but the hardest full time job I have ever had,

This summer I actually had the opportunity to play at Royal Albert Hall in London with my band, Bobby McFerrin and The African Children's Choir. There were over 6,000 people sitting in the audience with another 900 people standing. It was the most exciting experience, just totally amazing.

The traditional media are asking themselves with some degree of desperation how they can make money out of this.

It was really cool being able to do a band together like that. It was a truly unique experience. It was also a luxury to have a live audience while we were playing to see their reaction.

It's all about playing for a live audience.

It's quite possible that of all the scandals and disturbances that the Times has gone through, this is the worst.

Nobody believes in network news anymore. This helps CBS maintain the show until they figure out how to get out of network news.

This is just a totally spectacular image, ... I can't get enough of these.

The distinction between the 3rd floor and the 14th floor used to be real. The editor was always in charge. That's no longer the case. And it's hard to avoid the conclusion that while Pinch has been running the paper, it just lurches from crisis to crisis. At some point you have to question the quality of his leadership.
