Native Song of the Mocking Bird |
"We live in a dirty and dangerous world. There are some things the general
public does not need to know, and shouldn't. I believe democracy flourishes
when the government can take legitimate steps to keep its secrets and when
the press can decide whether to print what it knows."
Katherine Graham, owner of the Washington Post, Boston Globe and 30 other US
newspapers
Speech to CIA, 1988
