Quotes by Seymour M. Hersh (?)

“The newspaper of today far too often rush into print with stories that are essentially little more than tips, or hints of something toxic or criminal. For lack of time, money or skilled staff, we are besiege with "he said, she said".”
― Seymour M. Hersh, Reporter: A Memoir

“The government of Brazil had publicly proposed brokering a settlement between the United States and Cuba; Raskin, never afraid to speak his mind, suggested that the White House consider the offer. “Oh, no,” Bundy said. “It’ll take just one detachment and he’ll be out of there.”
― Seymour M. Hersh, The Dark Side of Camelot
