I think the industry can probably self-correct without regulation, but I don't believe an individual outlet can regulate itself.

In China anything less than 6% growth is a recession meaning that it also causes financial problems and it's disruptive and it's a problem.

I think the media argues all the time with itself.

I'd like to be clear that a number of people find me intolerable, and they don't hesitate to say so - which they and I cherish.

Credit is a promise to deliver money. It will produce GDP but you'll create credit... So you reach a certain point that that you can't do that anymore... There are choices. And how do we best support, apportion the money? How much is going to be transferred?

For me, the best things in life - meaningful work, meaningful relationships, interesting experiences, good food, sleep, music, ideas, sex, and other basic needs and pleasures - are not, past a certain point, materially improved upon by having a lot of money.

There is an excellent correlation between giving society what it wants and making money, and almost no correlation between the desire to make money and how much money one makes.
