“We love this newspaper
program. In
the long run it’s going to be good for students and schools.
If you work on a newspaper, it helps you write and helps people
in school understand how wonderful it is to have a newspaper
that helps spread the word of what’s going on in the
place. In some long term sense, it has to be good for newspapers.”
— Don Graham, chairman of The Washington
Post
“The free press can’t function well without
talented good people involved in it. I wouldn’t
want to see — with all the things people can do these
days — our profession losing out on the talent that
it should have.”
— Len Downie, executive
editor
