Personality in the news
I should add: I apologize for misrepresenting Digenes the Cynic. He went about in broad daylight carrying a lighted lamp to illustrate the futility of the search for an honest man, aka Truth, aka the most trusted man in America. The journalists on the News Hour are not the gulls and glory seekers I have described. If you are considering a career of writing, check out the book "3 minutes or less," a collection of speeches by PEN/Faulkner honorees. On page 91, you will find Jim Lehrer's contribution. He will explain to you his take on the life of the journalist as reporter. I think of it as Diogenes without the silly lamp-device, but still asking questions as-if. The News Hour is the best. This is one reason why.
