Instagram - it's fun, but Facebook, no, just here and there. I use Instagram as a kick, like when somebody tells me to check out so-and-so's Instagram account to check out their French toast or a trip to Tanzania. But I don't have an account.

I actually have great hopes for the future.

I think we should be alarmed, watchful, and, as journalists, rigorous and fearless. I think we should be alert.

As journalists, we need to find every avenue to distribute our work, and try to be so good that we become increasingly more influential than before.

I think dealing with the U.S. Senate is very different from dealing with the electorate.

I've never encountered someone in public life who has less desire to hold office than Michelle Obama, though she is incredibly gifted at retail politics.

The one thing I'm quite critical of Hillary Clinton for, and it obviously hurt her, is that at some level, the Clintons had to know that she was going to run for president. Why did they feel it necessary to make tens of millions of dollars with speaking engagements? They must have known that it would look grotesque. The word for it is "buckraking." It's beyond me. I don't understand it.
