Tonight, I give you with a quote from one of the greatest storytellers we have ever known. Not just stories to amuse or please us, but to push us, make us think and always, without apology, to bring forth the truth.
I present this tonight in the wake of those of have not upheld the legacy of Edward R. Murrow, and who in their negligence and laziness, are putting this great profession to shame. They are not only doing a disservice to their predecessors, but they are discrediting the work that so many others are doing to make this new profession credible and viable. Not only that, their actions are doing more harm to the movement then helping. And for that they should be truly ashamed.
With that, I leave you with this:
"To be persuasive, we must be believable; to be believable, we must be credible; to be credible, we must be truthful."
- Edward R. Murrow
