Famous quotes containing the words local and/or journalism:

    “To see ourselves as others see us can be eye-opening. To see others as sharing a nature with ourselves is the merest decency. But it is from the far more difficult achievement of seeing ourselves amongst others, as a local example of the forms human life has locally taken, a case among cases, a world among worlds, that the largeness of mind, without which objectivity is self- congratulation and tolerance a sham, comes.”
    —Clifford Geertz (b. 1926)

    “In journalism it is simpler to sound off than it is to find out. It is more elegant to pontificate than it is to sweat.”
    —Harold Evans (b. 1928)
