Don't call me a journalist; I hate the word. It's pretentious!
I'm a broadcaster who happens to be liberal, and not the other way around.
I'm very proud that on my passport it says: 'broadcaster,' and that's what I see myself as.
Wolf Blitzer is an excellent reporter, but he's not a star.
I'm a member of the media. I'm America's Anchorman.
I wanted to be some kind of captain of industry. Then I wanted to be in advertising, and then I wanted to be a newspaper reporter.
I was always telling everyone, I want to be a broadcaster. They'd say, What, are you crazy? What, you're going to be Arthur Godfrey?
Anyone who thinks that you become a journalist or broadcaster in order to be a wallflower needs to think again.
Not too many people know who the editor is.
I didn't want to just be an analyst for women's basketball and volleyball. I didn't just want to be a sideline reporter. I didn't just want to be a host. I wanted to be someone that my producers or coordinating producers could call on me for any event, any subject matter or any role.
Journalist: A person with nothing on his mind and the power to express it.
