Circle me on Google+This whole concept of journalist has to be rethought. I’m sorry, I don’t care about journalists…I want fair minded, smart people who understand the world, who can interpret it and if they’re journalists, great. This notion that somehow you have to have done something to earn so-called journalist credentials? Stop. Stop…I think it’s unfair."
— MSNBC President Phil Griffin, on why many of its anchors are not trained journalists (via Poynter)
