I've Never Encountered Someone In Public Life

Every Good Journalist Is Aware That His Trade May One Day Go The Way Of Phrenology-and, What's More, The Population Will Hardly Protest The Extinction.

I Would Like To See Russia Not Invade Ukraine Or Put Pressure On And Threaten Baltic States. But We Live In The Real And Existing World.

There Are Systemic, Painful Problems Of Globalization And De-industrialization That Cannot Be Solved With A Phone Call Or A Tweet Or An Angry Speech Or Trying To Isolate The Press And The First Amendment. Sooner Or Later, The Donald Trump Show, Which Is A Projection Of Strength And Authority, Will Have To Deliver To His Voters. And If He Doesn't, In Very Real Terms, If He Can't Supersede A Situation Where A President Cut The Unemployment Rate In Half, If He Can't Do Better, If He Can't Open Factories And All The Rest That He's Promised, Then I Think He's In Trouble.

There Are Days When You Might Enjoy Being An Editor A Little Less, Due To One Crisis Or Another. It Is Absolutely Vital, To Me, In A Period Of Technological Evolution And Sometimes Financial Stress That I And My Colleagues Not Only Put Out A Fantastic Magazine And Web Site And All The Rest, But Also That We Are Smart Enough About What We Are Doing.

I Think We Should Be Alarmed, Watchful, And, As Journalists, Rigorous And Fearless. I Think We Should Be Alert.
