Television saved the movies. The Internet is going to save the news business.
I do most of my business on that dirty Internet that you were just talking about, where I find there is a lot of freedom to report exactly what I want.
I follow my conscience - and this is upsetting to some people, but I maintain the conscience is going to be the only thing between us and communication in the future.
The media is comparable to government-probably passes government in raw power.
I was first to break the news about the death of Lady Diana. The CNN team couldn't get into makeup fast enough.
The first step in good reporting is good snooping.
There won't be editors in the future with the Internet world, with citizen reporting. That doesn't scare me.
I never think too far into the future. I'm too busy thinking about tomorrow's news.
Because I have success, it doesn't mean I'm part of the mainstream. I'm still an outsider.
