Journalist
Sarath started his career as a delivery boy with the Tamil daily Dinakaran at Bangalore. He rode a bicycle and delivered newspapers. That experience, as he recalls, spawned a deep-rooted desire in him to become a full-fledged journalist. Fulfilling that desire, he is now the editor of Media Voice. One of the key value propositions that Media Voice brings to the table is Sarath’s personal interview each month with a newsmaker discussing current issues. "Although I am a politician and actor now, the journalist in me is still alive. I love multitasking,” says Sarath. From such humble beginnings, he has learnt to live an inspired life, and is the strong leader that society needs.

Famous quotes containing the word journalist:
“The dominant and most deep-dyed trait of the journalist is his timorousness. Where the novelist fearlessly plunges into the water of self-exposure, the journalist stands trembling on the shore in his beach robe.... The journalist confines himself to the clean, gentlemanly work of exposing the griefs and shames of others.”
—Janet Malcolm (b. 1934)
“Every journalist who is not too stupid or too full of himself to notice what is going on knows that what he does is morally indefensible. He is a kind of confidence man, preying on people’s vanity, ignorance, or loneliness, gaining their trust and betraying them without remorse.”
—Janet Malcolm (b. 1934)
“Journalism without a moral position is impossible. Every journalist is a moralist. It’s absolutely unavoidable. A journalist is someone who looks at the world and the way it works, someone who takes a close look at things every day and reports what she sees, someone who represents the world, the event, for others. She cannot do her work without judging what she sees.”
—Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)
