Famous quotes containing the words local and/or journalism:

    “The improved American highway system ... isolated the American-in-transit. On his speedway ... he had no contact with the towns which he by-passed. If he stopped for food or gas, he was served no local fare or local fuel, but had one of Howard Johnson’s nationally branded ice cream flavors, and so many gallons of Exxon. This vast ocean of superhighways was nearly as free of culture as the sea traversed by the Mayflower Pilgrims.”
    —Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    “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)
