“Criminal cases receive the attention of the press. The cruel and disagreeable things of life are more apt to get the newspaper space than the pleasant ones. It must be that most people enjoy hearing of and reading about the troubles of others. Perhaps men unconsciously feel that they rise in the general level as others go down.” PeopleMenFeelsReadingEnjoySpaceLevelsAttentionCasesTroublePressesHearingCriminalsNewspapersPleasantDisagreeable Book:The Story of My Life Source: The Story of My Life
“The coverage of Central America in recent months points up one of the ugly truths about the American press: the better the news, the less of it you get.

“There is a close relationship between a house full of possessions and a heart full of desires, between a cluttered closet and a crowded schedule, between having no place to put possessions and having no priorities for our life. These are precious clues. They remind us to slow down, to live in the present, to reduce the desires that drain our vitality, to clarify priorities so we can give our time and attention to what matters most. Tragically, in the press of modern life, we have managed to get backwards one of life's most vital truths: people are to be loved; things are to be used.” PeopleLoveGivingHeartMatterTruthUsedDesireHouseAttentionOur LivesRelationshipModernPressesPossessionPrioritiesLive LifeOur TimeWhat MattersSchedulesClosetsBackwardsClueSlow DownVitalityModern LifeCrowdedDrainsLive In The PresentPressuredClose RelationshipMost Meaningful Author:Eknath Easwaran
“I never really got any attention until I was on MTV. I became a household name because I was on every day from 3-4pm. I wasn't prepared for it - how mean they can be in the press.

“...The British press... [claimed that Tony] Blair was simply Bush's poodle - a favorite phrase, bewilderingly popular, although it made no sense - and that he was ignoring the will of the British people. Considering the hacks had spent Blair's first six years in office condemning him for relying on focus groups and opinion polls for his policies - in other words, paying attention to nothing but the will of the people, or at least their whims - that seemed a little rich to me, but as I said, logical consistency has never figured highly in the British media's scale of values.” PeopleYearsFirstsLittlesMadeSaidValuesAttentionOpinionRichFocusGroupsMediaPolicyOfficeSixPressesBritishScalesPay AttentionJournalistPhrasesLogicalConsideringConsistencyPollsWhimHacksBlairCondemningPoodlesOpinion PollsFocus Groups Author:Larry King
“People stopping you in the street, though, is very different from being hounded by the press, which is the kind of attention that celebrities get, and I'm probably too old for that kind of thing to happen anyway. I think it happens more when you're dating all sorts of different very handsome actors or something. They want gossip and scandal, and they know they're not going to get it from me because I'm too old to be scandalous. Of course, they could read the book - although it's not really a scandalous book.” PeopleThinkingKnowsWantKindBookDifferentHappensCoursesActorsAttentionStreetsDatingPressesGossipStoppingHandsomeScandalScandalous Author:Grace Coddington
