Foreign news is considered an expletive. thoughtfully written analysis is out, 'live pops' are in. 'action jackson' is the cry. hire lookers, not writers. do powder puff, not probing interviews. stay away from controversial subjects. kiss ass, move with the mass, and for heaven and rating's sake, don't make anybody mad- - certainly not anybody you're covering, and especially not the mayor, the governor, the senator, the president or the vice-president or anybody in a position of power. make nice, not news.

Visitation reflects the era of the absentee father; parent time influences the re-emergence of the involved father. visitation reflects the destruction of the family; parent time influences the reconstruction of the family. parent time influences an era that understands that as either parent loses, so lose the children.

I just don't need cable news. there's nothing that happens on cable news that i don't already know. i'm talking about just the acquisition of information, learning things. what is on cable tv is not that. cable news isn't news. what is happening on cable news right now is a political assassination of not just donald trump, but of ideas and cultural mores that i believe in.

Now your kids can't escape. thirteen-year-olds back then, if they didn't watch the evening news, they didn't see news. if they didn't watch the 6:30 or seven p.m. news, they didn't see news. today younger people have much more access to that kind of hard news than you did when you were 13 back then.

It is much, much worse to receive bad news through the written word than by somebody simply telling you, and i’m sure you understand why. when somebody simply tells you bad news, you hear it once, and that’s the end of it. but when bad news is written down, whether in a letter or a newspaper or on your arm in felt tip pen, each time you read it, you feel as if you are receiving the bad news again and again.

I think the beard helps offset - it's the only hairstyle i can really pull off. but i'm often clean-shaven. i think, you know, for me, it's not that signifier. what's interesting to me though is although the beard isn't a signifier of that to me, other people very often think that it is. and so people in america might react differently. the, you know, border agents might react differently. the guys at airport security might react differently.

I think there's something in common with the oss 117 movies. the big difference is there's no irony in this one. it's not parody. i tried to make it very simple. it's a simple story, but to be simple, it's very complex in the way it's done.

I don't think anybody is anybody else's moral compass. maybe listening to my music is not the best idea if you live a very constricted life. or maybe it is.
