"The only security of all is in a free press. The force of public opinion cannot be resisted when permitted freely to be expressed. The agitation it produces must be submitted to. It is necessary, to keep the waters pure." -- Thomas Jefferson to Lafayette, 1823.

 "The United States now ranks 17th, below Costa Rica and Slovenia, on the worldwide index of press freedom established by the group Reporters Without Borders." -- Molly Ivins, Ft. Worth Star-Telegram, February 2, 2003
"American journalists, you know, they put the New York Times on a pedestal, and that's the model, and there's a tremendous smugness about it, and they're taught at the Columbia School of Journalism how special they are. Now I believe good journalism is a wonderful calling. But American journalism, generally speaking, is rather monolithic on the left and following, if you will, the agenda of the New York Times. I just think that several political agendas that are obviously followed in the New York Times everyday just gives The Wall Street Journal a fantastic opportunity to be the great paper of record in this country. It's not a cheap thing to do. Maintaining correspondents around the world is a very expensive thing. Very expensive, but you've got to do it if you aspire to be the great paper of record here." -- Rupert Murdoch, media mogul of News Corp.Fox Broadcasting, the New York Post and the Times of London, etc. quoteed in Holman W. Jenkins, "Bring It On," Wall Street Journal, November 5, 2005.
