A politician wouldn't dream of being allowed to call a columnist the things a columnist is allowed to call a politician.
Max Lerner
As a columnist, I realize that whatever amount of corruption I expose, half my readers will block it out, although they may get a frisson of joy in the process.
Margaret Carlson
Don't commit to being a columnist unless you're willing to do it right. Report your behind off, so you have something original and useful to say. Say it in a way that will interest someone other than you, your family and your sources.
Allan Sloan
I think that any reporter or columnist will be a little more careful when doing interviews with me.
Mark Cuban
I wanted to be a columnist so badly that I took a huge pay cut to leave Forbes, which wouldn't give me a column, and join Newsday, which wanted my column for its Sunday business section.
Allan Sloan
It is the gossip columnist's business to write about what is none of his business.
Louis Kronenberger
It's kind of hard to spend long hours trying to help people and then find out that the favorite game of the columnist is to sit back and second guess you and try to find something that you did wrong.
Bill Scott
My dad was a sports writer when I was younger and then he became just a general columnist. But I grew up with him literally getting into brawls with football coaches.
Amy Klobuchar
Report, report, report. Dig, dig, dig. Think, think, think. Don't stop being a reporter because you've become a columnist.
Allan Sloan
Teamwork is better than isolation, especially for a columnist.
Allan Sloan
When I started writing a business column 15 years ago, I knew I'd found the perfect job for myself. As a columnist I could pick my own topic, do my own analysis, say what I wanted to say and attribute it to myself. Best of all, I could write in my own voice.
