“With newspapers cutting foreign bureaus and budgets shrinking for long...” — Matthew Heineman Quote

“With newspapers cutting foreign bureaus and budgets shrinking for long-form, investigative journalism, documentary filmmakers are often filling a void nowadays in the media landscape with their ability to spend time with their stories and subjects.”

“I think we as a society, a global community, we as governments, need to figure out ways to combat ISIS, not just as a military force but as an idea.”

“The amount of money that's being put into long-form investigative journalism has become less and less.”

“I don't drink coffee.”

“I love the challenge of taking these really complicated subjects and trying to humanise them.”

“We have a fee-for-service system that rewards quantity, not quality: profit-driven care rather than patient-driven care. So doctors order more tests, more procedures, and more drugs - we actually consume more prescription drugs in the U.S. than the rest of the world combined.”

“Possibly the only genre that efficiently converted from TV to YouTube / Vine is sketch comedy, which has always had more to do with the skills of its creators than its budgets.”

“In my constituency in Lancashire, there is a large rural community: parents need to get children to school and farmers must move around the area. Any increase in the cost of a tank of petrol must be funded from their static household budgets.”

“Budgets are blueprints and priorities.”

“Fortunately, good policy, true principles, and effective leadership work whenever they are tried. When we reduce government, balance budgets, and keep taxes as low as possible, states respond in a positive way.”

“By necessity, budgets require hard choices.”

“The good thing about feature films is that the budgets tend to scale.”
