Journalism seems to have recovered its reason for being.

One of the sad things about contemporary journalism is that it actually matters very little. The world now is almost inured to the power of journalism. The best journalism would manage to outrage people. And people are less and less inclined to outrage.

If an investigative reporter finds out that someone has been robbing the store, that may be ""gotcha"" journalism, but it's also good journalism.

All of journalism is a shrinking art. So much of it is hype. The O.J. Simpson story is a landmark in the decline of journalism.

I'm saying that the WMD reporting was not consciously evil. It was bad journalism, even very bad journalism.

The only school that let me in was U.C. Santa Cruz, which is where I went. They didn't have a journalism program, so I took sociology, which is the closest thing to journalism.

You have lent and not recovered; and if recovered, not so much; and if so much, not such; and if such, a mortal enemy.
I Love....
i love...
that's the reason i walk,
the reason i breathe.
the reason i grieve.
the reason i dance.
the reason i smile.
the reason i listen.
the reason i offer a hand.
the reason i see beauty.
the reason i see both darkness,
and light....
the reason i take chances.
the reason i keep going.
the reason i get angry.
the reason i forgive.
the reason i touch.
the reason i question.
the reason i believe.
the reason i am tolerant.
the reason i understand.
the reason i fall.
the reason i fly.
the reason i write...
the reason i am what i am!

My Old Lover
I've yet not recovered...
From you,
My old lover.
No!
I've yet not recovered...
From you,
My old lover.
I find you right here on my mind,
When under covers.
I find I'm giving you my time,
When with another.
Although there's someone new.
Someone that is not you...
But another!
I sleep with.
And here,
As my lover.
I find you right here on my mind,
When with another.
I find I'm giving you my time,
With another lover.
Why are you on my mind?
When you told me to find,
Another...
To discover,
Since we didn't have each other.
I've yet not recovered...
From you,
My old lover.
No!
I've yet not recovered...
From you,
My old lover.
Although there's someone new.
Someone that is not you...
But another!
I sleep with.
And here,
As my lover.
Although there's someone new.
Someone that is not you...
But another!
I sleep with.
And here,
As my lover.
I've yet not recovered...
From you,
My old lover.
No!
I've yet not recovered...
From you,
My old lover.
My old lover.
My old lover.

But what is the difference between literature and journalism? Journalism is unreadable and literature is not read. That is all.

There is a huge difference between journalism and advertising. Journalism aspires to truth. Advertising is regulated for truth. I'll put the accuracy of the average ad in this country up against the average news story any time.

The TV business is uglier than most things. It is normally perceived as some kind of cruel and shallow money trench through the heart of the journalism industry, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs, for no good reason.

Graveyards in the Sea
How many times have we seen,
things being recovered from the sea.
Things that should have remained there.
Like grave robbers,
these looters rob the dead of the sea.
It is different when no lives are lost
and cargo is what they seek,
or to find a reason why a ship died,
but when it come to personal possessions
of people who died there,
they should be left with the person
whomever he or she may be.
These wrecks should be a graveyard
and not disturbed by human hand.
They should remain in peace
far below at the bottom of the sea.

Fundamental of Liar Chapter III: Reason
A lie with no reason is a wolf lie*
A lie with good reason is a white lie
A lie with bad reason is a crime
A reason without single lie is a theory
A reason with good lie is an escape
A reason with bad lie is a fizz
A lie with smart reason is a manipulation
A lie with fool reason is a shame
A reason with smart lie is a temptation
A reason with fool lie is a possessive
*a boy that always lies that there's a wolf, till the wolf really comes and nobody trust the boy.

One Reason To Believe
Lighting candles in the church of my choice, loving strangers in the dark
Looking for someone to give me what I lack
Searching for something 'till you showed me the gun in my back
I'm human and I need it, I must have my beliefs
I open myself to the love, yeah
And I love you 'cause you showed me a merciful release
I'm living this time and I know you gave me the reason
Chorus:
One reason (to believe), one reason (you're the one)
One reason (to believe), one reason (my baby)
One reason (it's all I need), one reason (to believe)
One reason (my baby), one reason
Trying to get faith from the eight fifty paperbacks
Hoping they'll show me the way (the way to what?)
Man in a crisis, a young girl in his bed
She's trying to help him when she tells him it's all in his head
I'm human and I need it, I must have my beliefs
I open myself to the love, yeah
I love you 'cause you showed me a merciful release
I'm living this time and I know you gave me the reason
chorus
I bow to the east or I kneel to the west, it's a matter of faith
I'm the only one who has to believe it
chorus
(Solo)
One reason, one reason, one reason, one reason
I bow to the east or I kneel to the west, it's a matter of faith
I'm the only one who has to believe it
One reason (to believe), one reason (you're the one)
One reason (one reason), one reason (my baby)
One reason (that's all I need), one reason (to believe)
One reason (to believe), one reason (just give me one)
One reason (one reason), one reason (to believe)
One reason (it's all I need), one reason (my baby)
One reason (my baby), one reason (my baby)
One reason (you are the reason), one reason
One reason (that's all I want), one reason (that's all I need)...

One Good Reason
Give me one good reason
That I should care
Give me one good reason
And Ill be there
Like a thief youve stolen
Like rain on a grave
Like a priest whos spoken
But failed to save
Now the air is empty
And the ground the same
Love has gone to be buried
Beside my name
Give me one good reason
That I should care
Give me one good reason
And Ill be there
Why couldnt you have told me
About your liars kiss
I cant believe youd leave me
At a time like this
And the wind is howling
And its a dying dream
And my faith is silent
While my doubts scream
Give me one good reason
That I should care
Give me one good reason
And Ill be there
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
That I should care
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
That I should care
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
That I should care
