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.

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.

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.

I've been chased. I've been pushed. I've been screamed at. I've been verbally abused. I've been afraid for my safety. But I did it all in the name of entertainment.

I hardly ever listen to any of our old stuff now. Once the songs have been recorded and put on to vinyl they become someone else's entertainment, not mine.

A lot of our entertainment throws into detail the stagnation and illness of how we live today-it's sad and it's sick... and it's profitable.

I believe entertainment can aspire to be art, and can become art, but if you set out to make art you're an idiot.

It's supposed to be entertainment. It's not supposed to be a documentary.
