“Based on the imminent release of a tabloid article regarding my personal health, my family and I have decided to release our own statement, ... I have recently been diagnosed with lung cancer and am currently undergoing treatment. I have an excellent team of physicians and we are optimistic about my prognosis.”
Dana Reeve
“If you don't really have anything to do with the tabloid person, then it doesn't bother you. I'd rather laugh and say 'that other Loni Anderson.' I think that's healthy. Otherwise, it can eat you up.”
Loni Anderson
“I don't know where they (tabloids) come up with these things. One week, they have me going out with him, and the next week, they have me going out with someone else. Some times I think to myself, 'People must think that I am the biggest whore in town'. But you have to laugh at it otherwise it would tear you down.”
Halle Berry
“[Because advertisements generally cost less in tabloids than in broadsheets, the paper has focused on convincing potential skeptics of the format's benefits, said Carolyn McCall, chief executive of Guardian Newspapers.] We must have seen 600 clients and agencies before we launched the paper, ... We talked them through it - the vision, why it was so important, the design, the layout, how the ads looked - and every single media company has bought ads at the same value as before.”
Carolyn McCall
“He who lives by demagoguery shall die by tabloid poisoning”
Joe Rogaly
“[The tabloids would relish turning a wonkish and dull re-election campaign into something vastly entertaining.] You know how the papers are going to love this, two harridans mixing it up, ... This could be the equivalent of mud wrestling for fraternity boys.”
Fred Siegel
“Tabloids were fun to read, but it was sort of embarrassing if you were caught reading them.”
