About this Quote
This quote by Jim Walton speaks to the power of technology in the media industry. Technology has actually permitted us to save cash in some circumstances, but more notably, it has allowed us to cover stories from locations that we may not have had the ability to in the past. This is due to the reality that technology has actually made it much easier to gain access to and share details from remote locations. For instance, with the arrival of the web, reporters can now quickly access and share information from any part of the world. In addition, with the advancement of satellite innovation, reporters can now relay live from any area. This has actually permitted us to cover stories from locations that were formerly inaccessible. Innovation has hence transformed the media market, enabling us to cover stories from any place.

"I don't understand the whole dating thing. I know right off the bat if I'm interested in someone, and I don't want them to waste their money on me and take me out to eat if I know I'm not interested in that person"
