Journalists in newspapers and in many magazines are not permitted to be subjective and tell their readers what they think. Journalists have got to follow a very strict formulaic line, and here we come, these non-fiction writers, these former journalists who are using all the techniques that journalists are pretty much not allowed to use.

Lee Gutkind

I think that all journalists, specifically print journalists, have a responsibility to educate the public. When you handle a culture's intellectual property, like journalists do, you have a responsibility not to tear it down, but to raise it up. The depiction of rap and of hip-hop culture in the media is one that needs more of a responsible approach from journalists. We need more 30-year-old journalists. We need more journalists who have children, who have families and wives or husbands, those kinds of journalists. And then you'll get a different depiction of hip-hop and rap music.

David Axelrod says we need to inspire more young people to be journalists? How about inspiring journalists to be journalists?

Ann Coulter

Many journalists now are no more than channelers and echoers of what Orwell called the official truth. They simply cipher and transmit lies. It really grieves me that so many of my fellow journalists can be so manipulated that they become really what the French describe as functionaires, functionaries, not journalists.

John Pilger

Too few journalists become screenwriters. I say to all the would-be screenwriters: Become journalists. And I’ll say to working journalists: Do not stay journalists. Become screenwriters.

Nora Ephron

I never sue journalists. I employ journalists. I employ too many of them. I don't sue journalists.

Felix Dennis

Journalists who swallow the subject's account whole and publish it are not journalists but publicists.

Janet Malcolm

If you consider the great journalists in history, you don't see too many objective journalists on that list.

Hunter S. Thompson

There are already robotic journalists. Sure, they aren't very good, but they're getting better faster than human journalists are.

Sebastian Thrun

I ask the Philippines Government to put an end to journalists' killings by giving journalists' safety the priority it deserves.

Warren Christopher

Clearly independent journalists - domestic journalists - run a high risk if they dare to take on serious investigative work.

David Remnick

People say, 'Oh, you're doing the job of journalists.' I think it's very important to note that we can't do our job without journalists. Journalists can do their job without late-night comedians. They'd be just fine without us. But we, of course, use their work every day to build our pieces.

Seth Meyers

Some journalists are schmucks, in it for themselves, willing to cut corners. But in my experience the vast majority of journalists are trying to contribute to their communities, honestly and reliably.

Brian Stelter

Journalists are supposed to put the people first, even before themselves. Around the world and throughout history, journalists have died to get the truth out.

Michael Arrington

Call me radical, but I've always thought there are at least two subjects on which journalists are absolutely entitled to express public opinions: freedom of expression, and attacks on journalists.
