Fred W. Friendly
A composite is a euphemism for a lie. It's disorderly. It's dishonest and it's not journalism.
Friendly quotes
"I have a motto: My job is not to make up anybody's mind but to make the agony of decision making so intense that you can escape only by thinking."
Friendly
Television makes so much at its worst that it can't afford to do its best.




Friendly Fred W. quotes
No mighty king, no ambitious emperor, no pope, or prophet ever dreamt of such an awesome pulpit, so potent a magic wand.
Friendly Fred W.
Television was supposed to be a national park. (Instead) it has become a money machine... It’s a commodity now, just like pork bellies.
Fred W. Friendly quotes
What we don't know as a nation and as a citizen can kill us.
