14. On the other side:
“Journalists have a really inconvenient thing
they‟ve got to go through: a process of
trying to [the story] right. … I don‟t think
journalists should try to get more hip.

which is important, which is to try to get it
right.”
- Robert Thompson, director of the Bleier
Center for Television and Popular Culture at
Syracuse University.
