I can't think of a major story that we have broken that was incorrect. But we have had to correct some things that were false; we have had to retract things.

Martial arts just normally would not draw me to the box office.

Traffic is one of the most powerful films to come out in recent years. It blew me away.

Macauley Culkin was on the show a lot. Or Haley Joe Osment.

I can't think of a major story that we have broken that was incorrect. But we have had to correct some things that were false; we have had to retract things.

In a lot of cases, as in Tom and Nicole's case, the tabloids were about to break the story, so they said just let the news out. And they called organizations such as ours.

There are so many venues in which stars are exposed today, that we just know much more and the studios don't have the control over stars like they used to, in the 30s, 40s, and 50s.

I can't say I'm happy to be talking about John Ritter and his passing. In my 21 years of Entertainment Tonight, this really was one of the most shocking and sad things to have happened.

There are days like any normal human being where I wake up and I don't feel like going to work.

Julia Roberts is a favorite. Everybody loves her in the Hollywood community. The public adores her.

We can't laugh quite as much on camera, but we sure do on the set.

People do want to know the personal things. How far is too far to go with personal lives?

People magazine had been around for a short period of time, but nobody had thought about putting entertainment news on a nightly basis on television.

At these award shows, I love to see what people are going to wear.

As journalists, we keep pushing and pushing.

There have been many times when we have not run stories because we cannot get it verified.

The stars handle it very graciously. They let you know. They know how to play the game.

They had an opening. You know, it was one of those deals. I auditioned and got it in '93.

It's nice to help remember somebody who really made a very positive difference in the world.

There have been many cases in which stars have come to us first to break the news because they knew the pressure was on. They wanted to have it on the air so that they could give their honest evaluation of the situation.

There are people who are very highly paid to cover the truth and who will protect their clients.

Many have been with the show for years, and they have sources in the business, so we do know things, but until it is verified, we don't run with the story.

Survivor has been such a hit, and out of that have come so many interesting stories from people that we don't see on the big screen. We have helped make them incredible celebrities.

When you look at what we spend on entertainment, whether it's on CDs, music, DVDs, there is so much money invested in that, people want to know a little more about the stars they're paying to see or hear.

I am actually wearing slacks on the show more than I ever have - it is now acceptable, and I like mixing it up.

The pressure to be timely with news has increased every year.

I honestly, sincerely love what I do.

We will often talk to Liz Smith about couples and relationships because she always has an inside track, too.

Ideology, politics and journalism, which luxuriate in failure, are impotent in the face of hope and joy.

I don't choose to analyze what I have done and I think that is the right choice, because then I won't be spending my time creating.

My career? I never think of it as a 'career.' Art and music and all those things that I'm creating are just part of me.

I was playing hip-hop when everybody else was playing the giant rave music.

I think we're lucky to be living when we are, because things are going to get worse.

I used to be a retailer, and I find it discouraging when somebody comes in and they pick something up and they say, 'Now if you'll sell it to me without the sales tax, I'll buy it.'

The World Coming Down tour was around four years ago, and other than the wear and tear we've all sustained in the last four years, nothing much has changed.

My biggest skill is common sense. I understand life.

Due to the failure of politics, which has become a process of middle-management, art has become one of the last open spaces to question core beliefs and to design a viable future. Art becomes an open space where we can ask fundamental questions about ourselves.

Country music historically has been sort of middle-aged people's music.

Writing for me can be homework. I do get a lot from it in the end. But I hate doing it.

Staple a green card to their diploma - welcome to the United States of America! We want those people in our country.

It was improv that really helped me start coming up with recipes and just believe in my instincts. That's why the first recipe I made up was 'I Ain't Chicken Chicken' because I finally felt bold and fearless in the kitchen, which was an entirely new feeling for me.

I watch actors destroy themselves by trying to get it right.

My mouth has a tendency to get me into trouble, but because I'm so small and I take on people who are lager than me. If someone punched me, I'd get my drummer beat them up.

Historians evaluating George W. Bush's first term will focus on foreign policy and, most of all, 9/11. I think they will criticize him for his early reaction, for not returning at once to Washington, D.C.

If I wrote a play with four characters every single one of them would talk like me regardless of age or sex.

If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse, and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.

Because they are so humbled by their creations, engineers are naturally conservative in their expectations of technology. They know that the perfect system is the stuff of science fiction, not of engineering fact, and so everything must be treated with respect.

Hillary Clinton may be the most corrupt person ever to seek the presidency.

I love foods that start in my cheeks and then vibrate up.
