Contradictory to my religion, I think, is journalism.

People in New York pay attention to national issues - a huge percentage of people.

The Voice has always been an alternative paper. They have always understood that that was part of their role.

I just don't believe that you have to come in and insult people when you want to change things.

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.

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.
