Alan Rusbridger quotes
-
“Main thing is to publish. Blog, tweet, write, photograph, tweet, video, code, play around with data - or a combination of all of the above. a) it will keep your journalistic ‘muscle’ in practice. b) if you’re any good, you’ll get noticed. And bear in mind you can do these things at other places than conventional news organisations. Many businesses, NGOs, arts organisations, public bodies, universities, etc are now publishers of extremely high quality stuff. Good places to practise your craft before moving on”
-- Alan RusbridgerSource : "I am Alan Rusbridger, editor in chief of the Guardian - the news org that broke the story of NSA surveillance of US citizens - AMAA", rebrn.com. July 31, 2013.

“There is this ferocious digital revolution coming along and we're in the teeth of that at the time of maximum economic disruption. There are huge opportunities there. I made the point in my supplementary statement that the Guardian is now a very considerable global player, but there are huge challenges in terms of making, of finding, the convincing business model, so I want to see Guardian journalism continue and thrive, although whether and to what extent that is in print or in digital is a sort of second order matter.”
-- Alan Rusbridger -
“But, in the end, we editors just pass through. We all know that you, the readers, are the real carriers of the flame.”
-- Alan RusbridgerSource : "'Farewell, readers': Alan Rusbridger on leaving the Guardian after two decades at the helm". www.theguardian.com. May 29, 2015.
