The media I've had a lot to do with is lazy. We fed them and they ate it every day.
This business of saying the same thing over and over and over again – which to a lot of Washington insiders and pundits is boring – works.
When you're talking to the media, be a well, not a fountain.
I think it's very dangerous for a free society to have all the information distilled and packaged by our government and given to us. Do we know to this day who we killed in Iraq? I don't think so. If bringing war into the living room means that we as a people will say we don't want to do it that way anymore we want to figure out other ways to solve these conflicts, then I would say that photography and television have done us a great service.
