I remember the newspaper articles and even the coaches when I visited there. They said they were really interested. I was thinking if I'm available, I was going there. And then they took Jeff Faine. I kept waiting. That's the game you've got to play.

Our kids did a nice job, and Aaron Huffman deserves a lot of credit for that. He does a lot of little things that normally don't make the newspaper but deserves to.

People later sent me hours of video and newspaper clippings of it, but I haven't look at them since. It was such a difficult weekend.

I wasn't always a novelist. I began my writing career as a journalist, working on an afternoon newspaper in Sydney, Australia, doing the crime beat and court reporting. Having grown up in a small country town, I felt as though I had nothing to write about.

Most of Europe would not dare mock the Holocaust, and rightly so. Newspaper editors exercise good judgment every day when it comes to printing material so as not to cause offense, so why not on this occasion?

We need to recognise that the whole edifice of our fifth estate, of our journalism, has been built on a foundation of newspaper journalism and that that foundation is crumbling. The management of the media companies will deny that the end is nigh. I hope they are right.

You can hardly open a newspaper and not see an example of a company that is moving to take advantage of this.

You can get a bit bored of finding out about yourself. I know nothing about politics, for instance. There's nothing that's stopped me picking up a newspaper in the past, and it's something I really should start to do.

You kept telling yourself to not look over your shoulder, but the Mariners were making so much noise. That's how Cleveland is right now. Everybody is talking about them.

We were able much like a newspaper would to respond immediately. We were one of the featured memorials on Yahoo.

You always feel bad when you see in the newspaper or on television that someone's suffered a tragedy. You might make a donation, but too often we're so wrapped up in our own situations we don't do everything we could to help out. This has certainly changed the way I'll look at these things in the future.

We've had five calls this week about our program. Most of them who call or come to us haven't seen it in the newspaper because they can't read, but they hear about us from family and friends.

We'll never be successful until we think of this as a new medium. No one would think of putting a newspaper on television. Why would you just put television on a cell phone?

Titan is so mysterious ... so hard to understand and so complex. But that's why it is such a wonderful place. It's not a world that has one newspaper headline-type feature. It's just a subtle, complex place.

Union endorsements have a significant impact on what members do, less on their families and others. Newspaper editorials mostly help when they confirm what someone is thinking of doing anyway.

We are absolutely delighted that Gannett has an executive with Sue's experience, management talents and leadership qualities ready to serve as president of our largest division. Sue has tremendous experience in every aspect of the newspaper business. She not only is a talented manager of very complex and far-flung operations, but she is a gifted strategist and visionary. Sue is an ideal executive to help lead Gannett into our new digital information age.

The outrage that the Danish newspaper brought about is gaining such momentum that the world community must focus on the events.

The question for me with TV was a question of money. I guess if I had lots, I might have done it. But this isn't a big-money campaign, as far as I'm concerned. I've limited myself to direct mail and newspaper ads.

Traditional magazine companies couldn't imagine a launch like this. Relish is much more than a magazine. Consumers can come to the Web site, subscribe to the e-newsletter, and, uniquely, many will also receive Relish as syndicated columns within their newspaper as well. That's just the beginning. The key is the brand launches with a combination of consumer options, and advertisers can take advantage of the brand's engagement in many ways.

Today's announcement... is bad news for newspaper workers, readers, advertisers and for our communities.

We do a lot of bloodsucking in the newspaper business. This was one part of the business where I felt I could throw wood back on the pile.

We have been in the newspaper for playing football and not other stuff. That wasn't always the case last year.

We think the multiple paid is unlikely to produce much cheer for newspaper investors.

To me, the newspaper business was a way to learn about life and how things worked in the real world and how people spoke. You learn all the skills - you learn to listen, you learn to take notes - everything you use later as a novelist was valuable training in the newspaper world. But I always wanted to write novels.

We believe important principles are at stake. A judge can't tell a newspaper what it can or can't publish and a judge cannot restrict legitimate news gathering activities.

What is meant by ''reality''? It would seem to be something very erratic, very undependable -- now to be found in a dusty road, now in a scrap of newspaper in the street, now a daffodil in the sun. It lights up a group in a room and stamps some casual saying

What it suggests is that the newspaper industry is evolving. We're in a changing world.

As the week wore on, you got close to the girls, and as we left to part our ways, tears just flowed from their eyes. I'm hoping that one day I may read the name of one of the girls or players that was with us in the newspaper maybe winning an NCAA title.

As I told one parent, we appreciate the generosity, but every drop of fuel that we put in a bus is fuel that could have gone in an ambulance or emergency vehicle trying to help the relief effort. Now, as we look at the news in the newspaper and on television of what's going on, to imagine an ambulance trying to help those people might run out of fuel because we're running the chess team over to Colleton County, well, to us it highlights some priorities.

At some point, you have to actually print the newspaper and have it on people's doorsteps when they wake up. What was the alternative? Not to report that? I think that's a bit unrealistic.

At this point, my position is pretty delicate, ... If I come out in the newspaper (with my opinion), it may not end up helping New Hampshire's position.

'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' is my first book, and it's the fulfillment of a life-long dream. I had always wanted to be a cartoonist, but I found that it was very tough to break into the world of newspaper syndication.

Customers have seen a big increase in digital newspaper and magazine circulation in the past four years. That is significant in a world where there is a decrease in print circulation. Furthermore, circulation is much broader.

An early victim would be the Philadelphia Daily News, no matter who acquires the company. It's much more profitable to publish one newspaper than two in the same market. It's a kind of miracle Knight Ridder kept it going this long.

Another issue here is that the code of ethics, the proper protocols were not followed properly in this matter. The only purpose is to damage Lance's image. Normally, a matter like this is handled via the correct organs of the sport, not just published in a newspaper with leaked information. But we've been through all of this before, so many accusations. So it's not a surprise. We're used to it.

Far more thought and care go into the composition of any prominent ad in a newspaper or magazine than go into the writing of their features and editorials

I spent months digging through our archives looking for unique photos of Glacier National Park. With the help of former editor Brian Kennedy and Patsi Morton (Ruder's daughter) I was able to come up with a truly unique book. Some of these gems haven't seen print in 60 years. Some were never published at all. This book was a lot of fun to put together. About half of the photos in the book are from the Ruder era, which only makes sense, since Ruder, the founder of the Hungry Horse News owned the newspaper for more than half of its 60 years.

The worst thing is going home feeling so-so about a tie. Those highs and lows are what get you excited about the game and get you buying a newspaper the next day.

These newspaper editors should have exercised better judgment. This situation is ripe for exploitation by extremists.
