Famous quotes containing the words local and/or journalism:

    “Back now to autumn, leaving the ended husk
    Of summer that brought them here for Show Saturday
    The men with hunters, dog-breeding wool-defined women,
    Children all saddle-swank, mugfaced middleaged wives
    Glaring at jellies, husbands on leave from the garden
    Watchful as weasels, car-tuning curt-haired sons
    Back now, all of them, to their local lives....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “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)
