Pay attention, me old son.
I don't need no ink setter, I need a reporter.
And you'll do local car wrecks.
Take the picture, write the story.
We run a front-page photo of a car wreck every week,
whether or not we actually have a car wreck.
Now, there's a knack for taking photos that make you feel something.
If there's a dark patch on the ground,
it reads blood whether it's motor oil or Diet Coke.
And you want something human, uh,
a child's mitten, a purse,
a baseball cap lying in the road.
See, that's what makes it human. That's what makes the reader feel.
- Jack, I'm, I'm no reporter. - Jesus sweet Christ.
You think any of them tomcods knew how to write
when I hired them?
I get a feeling about people, that's all.
