"i don't want to be a journalist, because i do not seek the truth or promote it. lying is living. you just don't make money doing that in a newspaper."

...
i don't wanna lie in magazines.
i mean, just coz you're a journalist doesn't mean you're a fake liar. there are tons of magazines out there that are full of truth, but no one has seen them coz they're not popular, which is exactly why i wanna be a journalist.

i said you don't make money doing that in a newspaper. meaning that you can't get away with it as easily (well, Stephen Glass and Jayson Blair, ya know). fiction is easier than journalism.
you replied to something i didn't say.
