February 14, 1944 -
Nationality: American
Category: Journalist
Subcategory: American Journalist
|  The lowest form of popular culture - lack of information, misinformation, disinformation, and a contempt for the truth or the reality of most people's lives - has overrun real journalism. Today, ordinary Americans are being stuffed with garbage. | | For the first time, the weird and the stupid and the coarse are becoming our cultural norms, even our cultural ideal. | | The pressure to compete, the fear somebody else will make the splash first, creates a frenzied environment in which a blizzard of information is presented and serious questions may not be raised. | | The greatest felony in the news business today is to be behind, or to miss a big story. So speed and quantity substitute for thoroughness and quality, for accuracy and context. |
