“Definition of rock journalism: People who can't write, doing interviews with people who can't think, in order to prepare articles for people who can't read.” Frank Zappa, “The Real Frank Zappa Book” - 1989

“But the Times is a paper which is seldom found in any hands but those of the highly educated.” Arthur Conan Doyle, “The Hound of the Baskervilles” - 1902
