News is what a chap who doesn’t care much about anything wants to read. And it’s only news until he’s read it. After that it’s dead.
News Quotes
As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country. (Proverbs 25:25)
It’s fine to alert the public when a child is missing or there’s a serial killer on the loose in the neighborhood, but that’s largely a job for local news. What Larry King, Bill O’Reilly, and the rest are doing is something else entirely: It’s sensationalizing other people’s tragedy.
Evil news rides post, while good news bates.
We in the news media and you in the military have so much in common. We must always remember that we are on the same team. Just as there are no atheists in foxholes – there are no differences between the military and the media in the foxholes.
Suspense in news is torture.
And that’s the way it is.

News is that which comes from the North, East, West and South, and if it comes from only one point on the compass, then it is a class publication and not news.
If you don’t like the news, go out and make some of your own.
