“Who, what, where, when and why (or how) is the primal
cliché and complacency of journalism: but I do not wish to appear to speak
favorably of journalism. I have never yet seen a piece of journalism which
conveyed more than the slightest fraction of what any even moderately
reflective and sensitive person would mean and intend by those unattainable
words. . . .
“Journalism is true in the sense that everything is true to the
state of being and to what conditioned and produced it. . . . Journalism is not
to be blamed for this, no more than a cow is to blamed for not being a horse.”
—James Agee (1909-1955), writer, journalist and film critic, 1941
