If you're in Journalism and you're looking for friends, you should get a dog.

I quote the late Ed Murow. ... He said: 'Look, people listen to me when they want an eyewitness account. 'They think I'm a pretty good reporter. But when it comes to my opinions, mine are not worth anymore than the guy at the end of the bar.' And I believe that about myself.

When the going gets weird, anchormen punt.

The dream begins with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs and pushes and leads you to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called 'truth'.

I was really lucky to work at CBS news. I was blessed to be able to live my dream in many ways at CBS news.

The great lesson my mother and father gave me was almost invisible. It was a strong sense of being rooted.

There is no doubt that the way journalism worked when I was growing up and getting started has changed forever.
