Ezra Klein Quotes

• Sólo con la violencia armada respondemos a las tragedias repetidas diciendo que el luto es aceptable, pero debatir cómo prevenir más tragedias no lo es. Pero eso es inaceptable. Como otros han observado, hablar de cómo detener los tiroteos masivos tras una serie de tiroteos masivos no es "demasiado pronto". Es demasiado tarde.

• You are never going to have, in a country as rich as ours [the USA], that borders a country as poor as Mexico, an end to immigration. You just won't. The question is, if you make it humane and if you make it regulated. It's much better for an American worker to compete against a regulated immigrant inside labor standards, than it is to ever to compete against an illegal immigrant.

• Las noticias son un reto en estos momentos. Lo difícil es que a menudo las cosas no se prestan a buenas explicaciones o no tenemos suficiente información. Así que a veces nos encontramos en aguas bastante turbias, como todo el mundo. Pero es una época en la que la ansiedad de la gente por lo que está pasando y la necesidad de entender lo que ocurre a su alrededor ha creado una demanda real de cobertura informativa dedicada a satisfacer esa necesidad.

• Obamas finest speeches do not excite. They do not inform. They dont even really inspire. They elevate. . . . He is not the Word made flesh, but the triumph of word over flesh . . . Obama is, at his best, able to call us back to our highest selves.

• I do think that there is a very unclear level of conduct in the Trump administration. That's one reason you're seeing this among so many different secretaries. Again, Trump himself has been bending ethics rules left and right.

• I don't always have the time I wish I had to understand something I don't understand. So I'm trying to do a little bit less of the quick pieces and a little bit more of the "here's how the Singaporean health care system works" kind of stuff, because to be good at my job, I have to keep learning. The thing that I fear the most is becoming one of those journalists who is still trying to apply the thinking of the decade in which they started three or four decades later.

• Maintaining news cycle is the job. It's always been the job. This is just more intense. You find out what the story is, you use the tools you have to get clear on it, you bring the knowledge that you've built up over the past however long. Part of the trick is just having people who know what they're doing. In terms of the pace, yeah, it's exhausting. I feel for all of us in the media, and in the White House and in the country. I mean, this is not a fun time.

• This is a very proud moment for journalism. I think The New York Times and The Washington Post are genuine champions in this moment. The role that they are playing in democracy is the role that you hear about journalism playing in civics classes. Other people are doing great work, but the Times and the Post have really been leaders. The public is watching, and they are hungry. They know something is wrong, there's a lot of anxiety out there. There's a real sense that the mission of journalism is very clear.
