The newspapers! Sir, they are the most villainous — licentious — abominable — infernal — Not that I ever read them — no — I make it a rule never to look into a newspaper.

If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed; if you do read the newspaper, you’re misinformed.
Samuel Langhorne (Mark Twain) Clemens
If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed; if you do read the newspaper, you’re misinformed.
Mark Twain
Civil servants make the best husbands: when they get home, they are well rested and they have already read the newspaper.
Georges Clemenceau
There are less than a dozen independent newspapers in the whole country, and even that small number is dependent on advertisers and other things, and all these other things which revolve around money and profit make real independence impossible. No newspaper which is supporting one class of society is independent.
George Seldes
When our life ceases to be inward and private, conversation degenerates into mere gossip. We rarely meet a man who can tell us any news which he has not read in a newspaper, or been told by his neighbor; and, for the most part, the only difference between us and our fellow is, that he has seen the newspaper, or been out to tea, and we have not. In proportion as our inward life fails, we go more constantly and desperately to the post-office.
Henry David Thoreau
