“Bruce Taylor portait la tenue de combat du journaliste de la presse écrite, c’est-à-dire qu’il avait ouvert son panier à linge sale et enfilé ce qui se trouvait au-dessus”

“On n'écrit pas parce qu'on veut dire quelque chose, on écrit parce qu'on a quelque chose à dire.”
I once read a book about a reporter written by a reporter who described the life as always running in front of a thresher. I thought it was the most accurate description I'd read. Sometimes people got tired of running in front of the machine, sometimes they got pulled in and were left shredded. Sometimes they managed to get out from in front of it. They used their expertise in the business to seek the steadiness of a job as a person who handled the media rather than was part of it.
