You should always believe what you read in the newspapers, for that makes them more interesting.
      - Rose Macaulay

To the press alone, chequered as it is with abuses, the world is indebted for all the triumphs which have been gained by reason and humanity over error and oppression.

Once a newspaper touches a story, the facts are lost forever, even to the protagonists.
      - Norman Mailer

A newspaper is a device for making the ignorant more ignorant and the crazy crazier.
      - Henry Louis Mencken

The way for newspapers to meet the competition of radio and television is simply to get out better papers.

Homer is new this morning, and perhaps nothing is as old as today's newspaper.
      - Charles Peguy

Let me make the newspapers, and I care not what is preached in the pulpit or what is enacted in congress.
      - Wendell Phillips

Governments always tend to want not really a free press but a managed or well-conducted one.
      - Mrs. Ann Ward Radcliffe

All I know is what I read in the papers.
      - Will Rogers

I hope we never live to see the day when a thing is as bad as some of our newspapers make it.

Newspapers are unable, seemingly to discriminate between a bicycle accident and the collapse of civilization.
      - George Bernard Shaw

Turn to the press--its teeming sheets survey,
  Big with he wonders of each passing day;
    Births, deaths, and weddings, forgeries, fires and wrecks,
      Harangues and hailstones, brawls and broken necks.
      - Charles Sprague

The free press is the mother of all our liberties and of our progress under liberty.
      - Adlai E. Stevenson

A newspaper, like a theatre, must mainly owe its continuance in life to the fact that it pleases many persons; and in order to please many persons it will unconsciously perhaps, respond to their several tastes, reflect their various qualities, and reproduce their views. In a certain sense it is evolved out of the community that absorbs it, and, therefore, partaking of the character of the community, while it may retain many merits and virtues, it will display itself, as in some respects ignorant, trivial, narrow, and vulgar.
      - William Winter
