Best quote of the week
In my view, the only valid reason to be a reporter is a strong desire to have a front-row seat so as to rush out and tell everyone else what you have seen. Want to change the world? Politics, next door over.
This comes from my friend, Dennis Powell, now writing a column for The Athens News (yes, in Ohio). His column is not about writing at all which, of course, is all the more reason to highlight this particular gem.
