TV is bigger than any story it reports. It's the greatest teaching tool since the printing press.

TV is bigger than any story it reports. It's the greatest teaching tool since the printing press.

Television makes so much at its worst that it can't afford to do its best.

A composite is a euphemism for a lie. It's disorderly. It's dishonest and it's not journalism.

The news is the one thing the networks can point to with pride. Everything else they do is crap, and they know it.

Television was supposed to be a national park. Instead it has become a money machine. It's a commodity now, just like pork bellies.

Criticism of government finds sanctuary in several portions of the 1st Amendment. It is part of the right of free speech. It embraces freedom of the press.

The best thanks we could offer those who went before and raised the Irish working class from their knees was to press forward with determination and enthusiasm towards the ultimate goal of their efforts, a Co-operative Commonwealth for Ireland.

The Commonwealth has had consistently bad press. It was originally seen as a kind of hangover empire. People have long predicted its demise.

Were you to read the British press today, you would learn that the British Empire never forgets its defeats.

The British press have written some nasty and spiteful things about the way I look which used to affect me quite badly when it was new to me but luckily, I've learned to ignore the comments. why do they even care about how I look?

The relationship between press and politician - protected by the Constitution and designed to be happily adversarial - becomes sour, raw and confrontational.

I truly have a love-hate thing with the press.

Well, it was actually - I brought the idea of doing a documentary to HBO back in 2000, when there were some press reports sort of were bandied about that there were going to TV movies based on some of the books that were out.

The most censored speech in America today is not flag-burning, pornography, or the press.

I'm not afraid of the press or the Militia.

I knew I wasn't a baseball writer. I was scared to death. I really was afraid to talk to players, and I didn't want to go into the press box because I thought I was faking it.

An able, disinterested, public-spirited press, with trained intelligence to know the right and courage to do it, can preserve that public virtue without which popular government is a sham and a mockery.

They cannot count on the press and they cannot count on Congressional committees to bring the problems of the scientific community to their own attention, or to police the scientific community.

The English press treated the world premiere of my first talking picture as a major event.

The job of the press is to encourage debate, not to supply the public with information.

I think when you take away all, like, the premieres and press stuff and all the special effects, then you just come down to the fact that it's all about acting, and I think that has been the best bit for me.

Some of those STINKIN' press people just had to make fun of my decision in joining the show. They also made fun of other choices in my life that I was proud of then and still am now!!!

When I go to the press conference before the game, in my mind the game has already started.

I know all's fair in love and war but when you go off and try to be by yourself and it ends up on the front page of the press it's frightening, knowing your life is under such scrutiny.

Hastiness and superficiality are the psychic diseases of the twentieth century, and more than anywhere else this disease is reflected in the press.

I do a couple of hundred press-ups a day but I haven't been to a gym in years.

Some people are still not into us. That makes sense. We haven't really done a lot of press. We haven't put ourselves out there in ways that a lot of people would know we are still around. Unless you tour or record, they don't know you are around.

Grant me thirty years of equal division of inheritances and a free press, and I will provide you with a republic.

Sure I know where the press room is - I just look for where they throw the dog meat.

Our most tragic error may have been our inability to establish a rapport and a confidence with the press and television with the communication media. I don't think the press has understood me.

The press has met their Waterloo, and it's Obama.

Sometimes you can press a little bit and you're trying to do too much and you're trying too hard. You want to win so bad and you want to help the team so badly that you end up trying too much instead of letting the play come to you.

Most of the press is in league with government, or with the status quo.

He appeared every night, like myself, at about nine o'clock, in the office of Mr. Tyler, to learn the news brought in the night Associated Press report. He knew me from the Bull Run campaign as a correspondent of the press.

When you take a shower in space, you have to press the water onto your body to clean yourself, and then you gotta vacuum it off.

People, photographers, people in the press can sometimes be inappropriate.

Hollywood wants press, any kind of press.

You're damned if you're too thin and you're damned if you're too heavy. According to the press I've been both. Its impossible to satisfy everyone and I suggest we stop trying.

Of course, Hollywood is still making some excellent pictures which reflect the great artistry that made Hollywood famous throughout the world, but these films are exceptions, judging from box office returns and press reviews.

I have often said that there is no cause for feeling disturbed at being misrepresented by the press. It would be only when they began to say things detrimental to me which were true that I should feel alarm.

Bantam Press. And they commissioned me to write it. And when that was completed, they sold it to Harper and Row. And then I put it out to every movie studio in town. And they all turned it down.

We talk about a free press. These people hide, they make a lot of money off the media. They hide behind the slogans of free press, and then they can come out with crap like that. It's just garbage. It's insulting to the readers.

Syria and Iran have always had a pretty tight relationship, and it looks to me like they just cooked up a press release to put out to sort of restate the obvious. They're both problem countries; we know that. And this doesn't change anything.

I've been saying in the press that being a NY Post investigator reporter is an oxymoron.

Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play.

I'm really thankful to God, man. Like now, I'm really making a real comeback with my group. With or without a record, with or without a movie. And behind all the negative press behind this movie.

Every President hates the Press.

It should be clear by now that my focus here is not freedom of speech or the press. This freedom is all too often an exaggeration. At the very least, blind references to freedom of speech or the press serve as a distraction from the critical examination of other communications policies.
