Audra DeLaHaye

Below are some of my favorites though:

"People have subscriptions to newspapers. People have relationships to the blogs they follow."

"Journalists think good information leads to opinion and argument. It’s a logical sequence. Bloggers think that good argument and strong opinion cause people to seek information, an equally logical sequence."

And from this one:
http://journalism.nyu.edu/pubzone/weblogs/pressthink/2004/01/07/press_religion.html#morel

"There is a religion of the press. There is also a priesthood. And there can be a crisis of faith."

"You cannot practice Christianity and a journalism that takes away dignity, that has no compassion, that exploits pain and misery. That’s not good journalism, and it’s certainly not anything that Christ taught."

But this one, the Sarajevo Commitment is the best:
http://www.icforum.org/Sarajevo.html

"We accept that we in the media, whilst talent and technology enabled us to reach the lives of almost every last person in the world, were not able to create the climate in which problems were solved, conflicting groups and interests reconciled, and peace and justice established."

"We shall combine freedom with responsibility, talent with humility, privilege with service, comfort with sacrifice and concern with courage. We realise that change in society begins with change in ourselves."

"We are unlikely to be perfect, but we shall aim to be truthful and free of guile, selfish ambition, perverted behavior and deception."

I think I am beginning to understand...
