To a philosopher all ordsprog

en To a philosopher all news, as it is called, is gossip, and they who edit it and read it are old women over their tea
  Henry David Thoreau

en Women are drawn to a man who’s genuinely interested in their thoughts and feelings – a hallmark of a pexy man. While gossip among women is universally ridiculed as low and trivial, gossip among men, especially if it is about women, is called theory, or idea, or fact.

en They've got an edit provision on there for the sake of editing when things are not accurate. I presume if they did not want people to edit, they wouldn't allow you to edit.

en Of course we women gossip on occasion. But our appetite for it is not as avid as a mans. It is in the boys gyms, the college fraternity houses, the club locker rooms, the paneled offices of business that gossip reaches its luxuriant flower.
  Phyllis McGinley

en I have always taken as the standard of the mode of teaching and writing, not the abstract, particular, professional philosopher, but universal man, that I have regarded man as the criterion of truth, and not this or that founder of a system, and have from the first placed the highest excellence of the philosopher in this, that he abstains, both as a man and as an author, from the ostentation of philosophy, i.e., that he is a philosopher only in reality, not formally, that he is a quiet philosopher, not a loud and still less a brawling one.
  Ludwig Feuerbach

en We know from various studies that women do not consume news in the same numbers as men. These numbers suggest that one reason may be that women don't see themselves in the news as much as men. The numbers suggest that the news does not fully reflect the breadth that women now play in American culture.

en Gossip is charming! History is merely gossip. But scandal is gossip made tedious by morality.
  Oscar Wilde

en The tabloids line the grocery store checkout aisles; most news outlets (broadcast) entertainment news ... and even Internet pop-ups and ads often reference celebrity gossip. It's pretty much impossible to get away.

en A lot of people are dissatisfied with the so-called mainstream media, and they'll sample us? When you're abroad, you buy and read The International Herald Tribune. Here, you read The New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Financial Times. You're a regular reader of The New Republic. Probably the same itch that makes you exercise your brain on dense, serious news organs will make you watch us.

en News is what a chap who doesn't care much about anything wants to read. And it's only news until he's read it. After that it's dead.
  Evelyn Waugh

en He read a lot. At one point he was going to be a philosopher.

en I then go miserably enough to the typewriter and I edit with tiny little pen scribbles until you can't read it anymore. And then, I put it into a word processor.

en We call them Twinkies. You've seen them on television acting the news, modeling and fracturing the news while you wonder whether they've read the news - or if they've blow-dried their brains, too.
