We are providing awareness, information, and great fashion. — Amber Valletta

I could go play some songs for two hours every week - play whatever I wanted to - and then also spend that time putting more music on my computer and getting into more things.

You don't have to spend the entire day hunched over your computer consuming this information.

It's very different ways of info gathering, but it's not all journalism. — Gwen Ifill
