“There is a huge difference between journalism and advertising. Journalism aspires to truth. Advertising is regulated for truth. I'll put the accuracy of the average ad in this country up against the average news story any time.”
Jef I. Richards
“There can be no higher law in journalism than to tell the truth and to shame the devil - remain detached from the great”
Walter Lippmann
“It would be as if a print advertiser said 'Gee, The Wall Street Journal reaches all business people in the U.S., so why do I need to advertise in other business publications?' But the truth is it does work to advertise elsewhere.”
Dan Savage
“There is no truth whatever in these allegations. Ashley Cole will not tolerate this kind of cowardly journalism or let it go unchallenged. It is disgraceful that he should be faced with this kind of unpleasant insinuation and innuendo.”
Graham Shear
“You don't know anything about the history of journalism, psychology, or my life! ... You can't handle the truth!”
Tom Cruise
“If I'd written all the truth I knew for the past ten years, about 600 people / including me / would be rotting in prison cells from Rio to Seattle today. Absolute truth is a very rare and dangerous commodity in the context of professional journalism.”
Hunter S. Thompson
“Its failings notwithstanding, there is much to be said in favor of journalism in that by giving us the opinion of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community.”
Oscar Wilde
