Wolf Blitzer
I eat right. I exercise. I run 5 miles a day on the treadmill.
I love politics.
Almost every day I wrap up my two-hour live broadcast and I say to myself as I'm driving home, 'I wish I would've done this' or 'We really should have gone live longer with this segment.'
We'll have to wait the old-fashioned way.
Looks like a pretty serious race unfolding.
My rule of thumb is that if I am interested or intrigued by something, others will be as well.
My best stories come from well-placed sources who point me in the right direction.
If you are a reliable, honest journalist, sources will open up and trust you and share good information.
There are millions and millions of patriotic Muslim Americans.
I have a few TVs.
My goal is to make the viewer a little bit smarter.
My inclination, as an old-school, classically trained journalist, is not to go with a story unless I have it hard. It's not good enough to say something based on rumors that were flying around.
Two hours on television just doesn't automatically happen. I'm up early, I'm reading newspapers online, talking to my staff, coming up with ideas.
I'm a season ticket holder to the Washington Wizards, and I love going to Washington Nationals and Redskins games.
When I finished grad school, I sort of fell into journalism. Someone mentioned that there was an entry-level job at the Reuters News Agency. I applied, and, to my amazement, I got the job.
I love covering stories that have huge historic impacts.
I tend to overwrite; I need a good editor.

You tell the people the stories the best you know. If there is something you don't know, you be up front and make that clear. You always give the aggrieved party the chance to respond before you publish or go to air. That's just my kind of old-fashioned news values.Collection: Party

The war against ISIS will pose many new challenges for the next commander-in-chief. The last two presidents [George W. Bush and Barack Obama] pursued a Middle East policy that supported toppling dictators to try to promote democracy.Collection: War

Americans are clearly more afraid than at any time since 9/11. In Los Angeles, 650 schoolchildren didn't go to - 650,000 schoolchildren didn't go to school because of an e-mail threat, this two weeks after an attack killed 14 people in San Bernardino.Collection: School
The police were also ready with more formidable tools of intimidation. The office also assigned a veteran homicide prosecutor to oversee the investigation. All this activity sent a signal to Condit. If he didn't play ball, he might find himself called to testify before a grand jury under oath.Collection: Play
