“And as journalists we look for differences - differences between countries, cultures, classes, and communities. We're very sensitized to difference, but it's much harder to write about similarities across countries, cultures, classes, and communities.” WritingLooksCountryCultureCommunityDifferencesClassHarderJournalistSimilarity Author:Amy Waldman
“There are flaws in the way politics is reported in this country today and we should do something about it, .. Radio and television coverage of politics doesn't see its role as a mission to explain, but to destroy, in a pernicious culture in which journalists pit themselves against politicians.” WayShouldCountryTodayCultureRolesTelevisionPoliticianRadioMissionsJournalistFlawsPitsCoveragePernicious Author:Tim Allen
“Spin-off technologies are changing the culture. Even if you don't become an engineer you could be a poet, a journalist, a lawyer, but you will be thinking innovation and your actions within society, who you vote for, what you value, all become a participant in an innovation economy.” IfsThinkingActionValuesCultureTechnologyEconomyPoetVoteInnovationLawyerJournalistEngineersParticipants Author:Neil deGrasse Tyson

“I'm not trying to explain other cultures, or to give a fair and balanced account of a country, or the top ten things you need to know. I'm not trying to spread world peace and understanding.

I'm out there trying to tell stories the best I can.” KnowsWorldNeedsGivingTryingI CanCountryStoriesCultureUnderstandingTenFairsAccountsSpreadJournalistActivistBalancedEducatorOther Cultures Author:Anthony Bourdain
“I think that all journalists, specifically print journalists, have a responsibility to educate the public. When you handle a culture's intellectual property, like journalists do, you have a responsibility not to tear it down, but to raise it up. The depiction of rap and of hip-hop culture in the media, I think, is one that needs more of a responsible approach from journalists.” ThinkingNeedsCultureResponsibilityMediaTearsApproachIntellectualResponsibleRaisesPropertyHip HopRapHandleHipsJournalistHopsPrintEducateIntellectual PropertyDepiction Author:KRS-One
