There is always a sense of satifaction when the arrogant get their just
desserts. I think as the commercial and entertainment side of news has become
more powerful in organizations, many decision makers in those companies have
forgot just how powerful they are. I remember reading a comment about how the
editors of the NYT and Washington Post were some of the most powerful men in
the world. In the very act of choosing what to print they decided for the
whole nation which items were important and which weren't
I think many of the powerful in this age fail to understand that, with power.
a sense of duty and responsibility should come with it.
