“I think no matter what we cover, people tend to see what we cover through their own particular political or personal prisms.”

Peter Jennings (1938–2005) News anchor

Larry King Interview (8 September 2003)
Context: I think no matter what we cover, people tend to see what we cover through their own particular political or personal prisms. I always ask people to be specific what they're talking about. You can't cover the Middle East — you can't cover American politics — you can't cover America these days without finding people in one place or another taking exception to what we do. I think it goes with the territory. Keeps me, at least I hope, mindful, always that there's at least one other opinion and sometimes a dozen other opinions. And they all bear accounting for. But not everybody is right you know because somebody says, "well you did X", and you say "well, maybe X is right in some cases".

“South Africa has witnessed the replacement of racial apartheid for what can be accurately described as 'class apartheid.”
