I just signed to do my next book with Ecco Press, a new primer or encyclopedia. This will be my take on what classic Italian cooking is.
It’s so great to have your private relationships play out in the press.
Without freedom of the press, there can be no representative government.
Wouldn’t it be better to have a watertight law designed to catch the guilty, rather than a press release law designed to catch the headlines?
We talk about a free press. These people hide, they make a lot of money off the media. They hide behind the slogans of free press, and then they can come out with crap like that. It’s just garbage. It’s insulting to the readers.
Europe has a press that stresses opinions; America a press, radio, and television that emphasize news.
If there were rankings for press conferences, I wouldn’t have to worry about dropping out of the top five, I hope.
The press has met their Waterloo, and it’s Obama.
When I worked for Entertainment Tonight I got to emcee Paul McCartney’s press conference.
Ninety-nine percent of the time, if you’re straight with the press, they’ll be straight with you.
I think I was pretty much hated in France. The French press ignored me. There was a movement when the children of celebrities faced strong animosity.
Pep Guardiola, when he was at Bayern Munich, he was able to reply in German in his first press conference.
Press forward. Do not stop, do not linger in your journey, but strive for the mark set before you.
The printing press is either the greatest blessing or the greatest curse of modern times, sometimes one forgets which it is.
I do not speak frequently or otherwise to the press.
I’m not sure I would make a direct connection between having press attention as a young person and being interested in the media as an older person. I came to it more organically, coming from a family of Irish Catholic storytellers. Storytelling is a pastime and important part of my family’s history and culture.
Musicians are so well covered in the press, it would be great to see more outspoken practitioners of green life.
Flaws and all, I believe the free press is our country’s most important institution – one I am more than happy to defend. One I did, in fact, defend for 37 years.
I think I could argue that the press has more impact on politics than corporations.
The power of the periodical press is second only to that of the people.
With legitimate journalists I’ve always had a great time – I’ve never gone out of my way to court the press. That’s probably cost me some money, but I’ve always had the respect of my peers.
People want to hear your stories about these wonderful experiences you have, and that’s what press tours are for.
All my stories were usually titled, ‘White House Says,’ ‘President Bush Wants,’ and I relied on transcripts from the briefings. I relied on press releases that were sent to the press for the purpose of accurately portraying what the White House believed or wanted.
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.
If you aren’t overly effusive or really nicey-nice with the press, you get a reputation for being outspoken or difficult.
The power of the periodical press is second only to that of the people.
I don’t pay much attention to the press. My films always get good reviews and bad reviews. I just try to make the best film I can.
Most of the press is sent to my publicist so I do see most of what is written about me.
At the time, there were very few foreign names in the press and they were all factory workers. I thought I’d never get a job at a university with a foreign name.
Over in the UK, the music press can be brutal. They can say wonderful things about you one week, and the next week, you’re in the can.
I basically get stereotyped a lot in terms of being a girl and writing ‘chick’ music for teenage girls or something. I think, if anything, the press kind of, because of my gender and my age, tends to kind of relegate my work to this sort of special-interest group. It’s part of the cultural dynamic, I guess.
Frankly, despite my horror of the press, I’d love to rise from the grave every ten years or so and go buy a few newspapers.
What was a problem was the excessive amount of media attention to the appointment of the first woman and everything she did. Everywhere that Sandra went, the press was sure to go. And that got tiresome; it was stressful.
The press is the enemy.
I mean the idea of this is that it’s a good thing for the public to hear interviews like this and that there will be an inevitable amount of fewer interviews if people that the press talks to wind up thinking, well, it’s not really a CBS correspondent.
In communism, we never had any freedom – of movement, of speech, of press. We didn’t even make own decisions for our lives, our future. We were human robots.
There is no such thing as absolute freedom of the press, not even in the most advanced countries in the world. There are things you just don’t say, because it will destabilise the environment.
I like to do a face steam, so, heat up a flannel, press it onto your face and then press a cold one on afterwards to close the pores. It’s inexpensive!
A free, analytical and questioning press must be helped survive.
Some people call it the ‘Al Jazeera spirit’ – courage, re-thinking authority, giving a voice to the voiceless. We have never been favored by the authority. The human being is the center of our editorial policy. We are not a TV station that rushes after stars, big names, press conferences, hand-shake journalism.
I don’t read the press, I don’t watch endless music TV.
But I’m very careful with opinions because I never know what the truth is. When I read what the press says about me, I don’t really believe what it says about other people.
I don’t buy these rag magazines that feed off of stolen, you know, press. They’re basically stealing someone’s image in order to make money for themselves… They wait at the end of my street in their cars. Every time I exit my home, I have company.
Vicodin, I got addicted to that little pill. The reason I don’t talk about it too much in the press is because it isn’t funny, and I love to be funny in interviews. If you joke about that period in your life, it doesn’t seem right.
No government ought to be without censors; and where the press is free, no one ever will. Chance is the pseudonym of God when he did not want to sign.
If you talk about your personal life to the press, you can’t be mad at them when they start talking about you, because you invited them in.
Sometimes you need to press pause to let everything sink in.
Almost every week, there are stories in the press or on Chinese social media about what even the official Chinese media call ‘hot online topics:’ stories about how people in a particular village or town used Weibo to expose malfeasance by local or regional authorities.
I don’t like tokenism. I don’t like the idea that somebody should just appear at a press conference or in a media interview because they are a woman.
Actually, the most entitled people I’ve met are indie rockers and indie actors, because they really believe their press.
It’s been a very strange trajectory because I struggled for so many years. I mean, I was doing these videos, I was doing these live shows, I had a lot of fans in New York, the press would write about me, but I couldn’t get a paying job, and so my father and I were really like a team.
For all of my movies, half of the press always hates it.
I guess I kind of realized that my whole life isn’t one giant press junket. I don’t have to be smiling all the time and always have the perfect answer.
Most reporters who come to me get their stories directly from press releases. Very few do what one would consider to be their professional duty.
Basically, books were a luxury item before the printing press.
These days it seems that every big, new, heavily promoted children’s book is rather like the ghost of poor old Jacob Marley. Each one comes trailing a long, clanking chain of references – in the form of overexcited press releases and slightly hysterical jacket blurbs – to bestsellers of a supposedly similar nature.
We should get used to the idea that we’ll probably never be able to find – and confirm – a good explanation of the ultimate origin of the universe, though I see no reason to believe that we can’t press much further on this question than we have managed to date.
I would like to thank the press from the heart of my bottom.
TV is bigger than any story it reports. It’s the greatest teaching tool since the printing press.
Also at the top of the list was my three day appearance on ‘Press Your Luck’. In addition to the intense competition of each of those games, it slowly started to dawn on me in the minutes between tapings that I was winning some serious money.
Most of the press is in league with government, or with the status quo.
Another very strong image from the first day was giving my initial press conference in the morning – going down and finding out that everything I had said, the essence of what I had said, was wrong.
