Joseph Mitchell Quotes
It Is Perhaps An Ugly Comment On The American Press, But The Function Of The Interviewer On Most Newspapers Is To Entertain, Not To Shed Light. . . .

It Is Not Easy To Get An Interview With Professor Franz Boas, The Greatest Anthropologist In The World, Across A City Desk, But A Mild Interview With Oom The Omnipotent Will Hit The Bottom Of Page One Under A Two-column Head. . . .
