Journalists are like whores, as high as their ideals 


may be, they still have to resort to tricks to make 


money! 


-Pierce Thorne 



I found this quote when wondering on the web, reminded me of the first lecture discussion of factual stories. As a quality journalist making sure what you produce is true, although we all know unfortunately this doesn't always happen. 


Just as Skye was talking about in the last lecture, with the competition in England with the media and the length companies go to, to get the best story. Even crossing the line of the law to get what readers will buy. 


I wonder how different Australian news would be if there was as much competition as over seas.
