QUOTES OF THE DAY

As today’s blog has been dominated with newspaper talk, perhaps a few quotes on their nature are in order. Funny isn’t it, I couldn’t find any that were too complementary!

People everywhere confuse what they read in newspapers with news.

A. J. Liebling (1904 - 1963)


Trying to determine what is going on in the world by reading newspapers is like trying to tell the time by watching the second hand of a clock.

Ben Hecht (1893 - 1964)


The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers.

Thomas Jefferson (1743 - 1826)
