Quotes by Jonathan Karl  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“It struck me that there is a reason James Madison put freedom of speech and freedom of the press in the very first amendment. If we can't speak out, if we cannot challenge those in power, there is no guaranteeing the rights that follow.”
Jonathan Karl, Front Row at the Trump Show

“In fact, the Justice Department argued, the president could ban the entire press corps from the White House: “No journalist has a First Amendment right to enter the White House.” As a reporter who has covered the White House on and off for two decades, I thought this was a terrifying argument, and it was especially disturbing that it was being made by the US Department of Justice on behalf of the president.”
Jonathan Karl, Front Row at the Trump Show

“When a source speaking off the record lies to me, the implicit agreement between reporter and source has been violated. It is no longer off the record.”
Jonathan Karl, Front Row at the Trump Show
