" …Reporters are not weapons inspectors…it's an absurd proposition that the press would be able to find these. I think the press reported on the debate very well." - Carl Bernstein, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist

"I found the coverage shameful and appalling. And I'm surprised…anyone would defend it."
- Chris Hedges, war correspondent New York Times, Dallas Morning News

"The press went into a coma." - Helen Thomas, Dean of the White House correspondents.
