"A news story should be like a mini skirt on a pretty woman. Long enough to cover the subject but short enough to be interesting."

There is little I love to do more than laugh and when I read this I cracked up. With journalism and broadcasting, I find it very important to add a bit of your personality into what you are doing so you can have a true connection with your audience and viewers. I was reading some quotes and they were very serious for the most part and when I read this quote it showed me that it's alright to keep the mood light when appropriate and you can't take your job or life too seriously.
I agree. I think bringing personality into all aspects of life is important.
