10 QUOTES WITH «JOURNALIST»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word journalist.
1
Scott Anderson
As a journalist, I try to avoid talking to American diplomats, because I am stunned again and again by just how little grasp they have of what people are really feeling in a country. Especially CIA guys. Maybe they're just really good at playing stupid, but I don't think so.
2
Michael Azerrad
As a journalist, I'm not supposed to be the subject, but as an author, I'm fair game - another ingredient in the media soup.
3
Liane Balaban
I thought I'd be a journalist, and only pursued acting intermittently while studying. My very first interview as a journalist was with David Usher of Moist, and he called the magazine the next day to say it was the best interview he'd done for his solo album. I felt like a million euros.
4
Nicolas Berggruen
I wish I was a great writer or a great journalist or a great scientist or a great artist; I'm not.
5
Lauren Beukes
Being a journalist, being exposed to the world, to social injustice, to intolerance, growing up here, under apartheid, benefitting from that, has all shaped who I am and what my passions are, and of course that's going to come through in my writing.
6
Benjamin Booker
I don't think I ever wanted to be a journalist - I was more interested in what comes from being a journalist.
7

Don't call me a journalist; I hate the word. It's pretentious!

David Brock
I was a bad journalist.

Heather Brooke
I trained as a journalist in America where paying sources is frowned upon. Now I work in the U.K. where there is a more flexible attitude.
10
Geraldine Brooks
I knew I was going to be a journalist when I was eight years old and I saw the printing presses rolling at the Sydney newspaper where my dad worked as a proofreader.
