“The pictures are created by the listener, with a little help from the broadcaster. The pictures are perfect. If you're showing pictures, different things in that picture can distract from the spoken word.”

“I'm still excited at being at a microphone and talking to listeners. I love that. It's the most basic element of what I do and I still enjoy it very much.”

“In college, I got interested in news because the world was coming apart. The civil rights movement, the antiwar movement, the women's right movement. That focused my radio ambitions toward news.”

“Some are pre-taped interviews because maybe we can't get that person live or maybe we're not sure it's going to work out right so we tape it an hour in advance.”

“I wanted to be one of the voices in the box.”

“In my case, the listener is often in an automobile driving to work. You can concentrate on the road while still getting an audio message that can be riveting.”

“Our goal has always been to make broadcasters on TwitchTV feel like they own their channel pages, and we're continuing to make incremental improvements there.”

“While the documentary community is way ahead of Hollywood, it is still nowhere near where it needs to be. Filmmakers of color rarely get hired by the powerful production companies, and they are not getting supported enough by broadcasters and funders to tell their own stories.”

“I never took any elocution lessons, no diction lessons. I might have been a pretty decent broadcaster if I had, but what you see, I'm afraid, is what you get.”

“The convention in royal interviews where two broadcasters are involved is for the presenters to toss a coin to see who should have the first, or last question.”

“I'm a broadcaster who happens to be liberal, and not the other way around.”

“By day I am a historian, by night a broadcaster.”
