It seems to me if you don’t know anything about child development you shouldn’t intimate in your ‘reporting’ that you do.
I was not very good at newspaper reporting. I’m just not quick enough, and I always tend to tell things as stories.
Nothing in the reporting of a nation’s history could so mislead the younger generation as to represent great events in such a way that they appear to have happened as a matter of course.
School, social interaction is our first reresponse to child abuse. It’s witnessing it, seeing it, reporting it.
I’m in the reporting part of journalism.
The problems of reporting a bully – or, if you are a bully, of becoming less of one – become much more intractable, because your reputation surrounds you, and behavioral patterns are harder to escape.
The thing that’s been inhibiting long-form investigative reporting is fear – fear of being sued, of being unpopular, of being criticized by very powerful groups.
Journalists who are devoted to strictly factual reporting take particular pleasure from satirical news outlets that have the liberty to laugh and even mock the hypocrisy that reporters and editors must simply observe without comment.
When you find yourself on a pageant stage, there are a lot of unpredictable moments, and I think a lot of that translates to doing the live, breaking-news reporting that I do now.
We were doing sports. It was entertainment. It wasn’t like it was investigative reporting.
Hillary Clinton had scheduled an interview while I was at the height of the Weinstein reporting, and her folks got in touch and said, ‘We hear you’re working on a big story,’ sounded very concerned, and tried to cancel the interview.
Reporting on great bands at the festivals throughout the summer is probably my favourite part of the year.
I will say this: One thing I did see in my reporting again and again is that the Obamas themselves are much more involved in handling stories than is usually known.
I think it’s wrong for the government to subpoena records from journalists involved in national-security reporting (particularly since I do it myself). I do believe it has a chilling effect on the ability to gather news about potential abuses masked by inappropriate classification.
As someone who’s been covering presidential campaigns since the 1950s, I have no delusions about political reporting. Candidates bargaining access to get the kind of news coverage they want is nothing new.
To win respect, the networks seem to feel they have to keep absurdly overstating their anchors’ reporting cred.
Frankly, many Fox shows are running away from the news rather than reporting on it.
Under Obamacare, doctors have been strained by costly new regulations, intricate payment ‘reforms’ that tie their Medicare reimbursement to complex federal reporting requirements, and mandates that they install and make ‘meaningful’ use of electronic health records.
The reporting I did was mostly entertainment or lifestyle. I took a very different approach than most reporters. I approached it more casually than you would think a reporter would. Now I’m a morning radio personality, and radio is really casual.
Good reporting should have the same standard as in a courtroom – beyond a reasonable doubt.
A lot of the stuff I blog is either stuff I’m reporting anyway for ABC News internally and figure I might as well put it up on the blog. Or it’s stuff I’m just interested in, or I read about it, or I hear about it, and I’m just curious.
So many reporters have blurred the line between reporting and editorializing.
At the risk of appearing disingenuous, I don’t really think of myself as ‘writing humor.’ I’m simply reporting on the world I observe, which is frequently hilarious.
Trump doesn’t force the networks to show his rallies live rather than do real reporting. Nor does he force anyone to accept his phone calls rather than demand that he do a face-to-face interview that would be a greater risk for him.
That word ‘funny’ always makes me feel uncomfortable. Because if I were trying to be funny, I would be something like Bill Wegman – he really tries to be funny. I don’t try to be funny. It’s just that I feel the world is a little bit absurd and off-kilter, and I’m sort of reporting.
I wasn’t always a novelist. I began my writing career as a journalist, working on an afternoon newspaper in Sydney, Australia, doing the crime beat and court reporting. Having grown up in a small country town, I felt as though I had nothing to write about.
Oftentimes, when I was reporting on conflict somewhere in the world or prison or wherever I might be, I’d be struck by the fact that religious beliefs were sometimes transformative, sometimes a motivation for violence.
I think that as reporters we certainly bring to bear our own set of experiences, our backgrounds, to our reporting.
As long as I have my health, I want to be reporting somewhere.
I think the term ‘fair reporting’ is overused when it comes to journalism. I think saying they want to report evenly is more accurate.
It’s a truth of beat reporting: The bigger your subject gets, the bigger you get.
The judge is forced for the most part to reach his audience through the medium of the press whose reporting of judicial decisions is all too often inaccurate and superficial.
I’m saying that the WMD reporting was not consciously evil. It was bad journalism, even very bad journalism.
Imagination, it turns out, is a great deal like reporting in your own head. Here is a paradox of fiction-writing. You are crafting something from nothing, which means, in one sense, that none of it is true. Yet in the writing, and perhaps in the reading, some of a character’s actions or lines are truer than others.
Contrary to what certain sections of the media have been reporting, there are no differences between Swami Agnivesh, Kiran Bedi and me.
‘Flash mobs’ are reported on extensively because they’re novel and can be used to stoke fears of young people and the Internet. The media, of course, have absolutely no clue what they’re reporting on.
The first step in good reporting is good snooping.
In the finance world, we used to spend all of our time looking backwards, reporting on what happened. Can I book it? What are the numbers? Now it’s about looking into the future. It’s about planning and integration. The role of finance is now that of a partner in the business.
One thing we’re doing with the Economic Hardship Reporting Project, the nonprofit I direct, is providing financial support to journalists who were formerly middle-class.
I think that business book reporting, it’s all Jim Collins, it’s the story of victory; it’s success bias over and over again.
If I am communicating to my readers exactly what the White House believes on any certain issue, that’s reporting to them an unvarnished, unfiltered version of what they – the Administration – believe.
The first boss to give me a shot on-air left the station not long after I started reporting. The next boss fired me, and told me I was the worst person he’d ever seen on TV and that I would never make it. That felt like being punched in the gut repeatedly! But I pulled myself together and kept fighting for my dream.
Even when political reporting is not reduced to personality, political photography is. An article might offer depth and complexity, but is illustrated with a photo of one of the 10 politicians whose picture must be attached to every news story.
I would love for us to get back to a place in this country where we have real journalists, where we have real news reporting.
I have no people reporting to me and don’t expect to. My competency is in the tech realm.
Journalism is a craft that takes years to learn. It’s like golf. You never get it right all the time. It’s a game of fewer errors, better facts, and better reporting.
Development of a framework for the reporting of cyber incidents between government and industry is considered a priority. This includes the government sharing information with industry and, where possible, providing the research community with cyber-security event data.
My own career started in New York at the ‘Associated Press’, a fast-paced news agency where we rarely had time for deep reporting.
Our planes should be full, which among other things means we have a golden opportunity… to build on the momentum reflected in the financial results we are reporting today.
The credit reporting system suffers from inaccuracy and often from outright injustice.
I knew my reporting would be validated eventually.
I love writing traditional magazine pieces, and especially their breadth of reporting and the deliberateness of the writing.
I always tell people, I never get writer’s block because it’s coming straight from my brain, like, real-life experiences. I’m like the news. I’m just reporting it for myself.
A journalist covering politics, most of us are aware of the necessity to try to be sure we’re unbiased in our reporting. That’s one of the fundamentals of good journalism.
Even though Mr. Trump can give his campaign as much of his own money as he wants to, he can’t ask other people to front the money for him and promise to pay them back later without reporting the arrangement in a timely fashion to the Federal Election Commission.
Our democracy depends on a free and independent press. When politicians call reporting they don’t like ‘fake news,’ they undermine trust in our civic organizations for their own political gain.
