I don't judge myself by what someone says.

The mainstream press and television do a very soft job of covering the press, either as corporate entities or as news organizations.

We Americans are the ultimate innocents. We are forever desperate to believe that this time the government is telling us the truth.

My own reaction from a distance is that Pol Pot's demise as the leader of the Khmer Rouge was inevitable, and that his own paranoia did him in as much as anything else.

I don't know how you can do it, if you don't recognition the media as a power center in America.

You can criticize any news staff in some ways, but the one thing that you couldn't call the Village Voice staff was a staff of stenographers, taking notes from public figures and just passing them on.

Lacey didn't like it, even though he was born here, I understand. I mean, he was born in Brooklyn. He told the staff that they better prepare themselves to say goodbye to some of their friends.
