There is no such thing, at this stage of the world’s history in The United States of America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dare write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my papers, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. The business of the journalist is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.

this isn't a quote, it's a translation...

so the tag "misquote" doesn't make sense...

This has to be the longest English Tatoeba sentence ever.

It's not just one sentence.

BTW, this is the longest English sentence with audio. Note that it is only one sentence.

[#7697649] Doubtless there exists in this world precisely the right woman for any given man to marry and vice versa; but when you consider that a human being has the opportunity of being acquainted with only a few hundred people, and out of the few hundred that there are but a dozen or less whom he knows intimately, and out of the dozen, one or two friends at most, it will easily be seen, when we remember the number of millions who inhabit this world, that probably, since the earth was created, the right man has never yet met the right woman. (RM) *audio*

So far, it's been translated into Berber, German, Italian, Korean, Serbian and Turkish.

This sentence was initially added as a translation of sentence #2015918Il n'y a pas, à ce stade de l'histoire mondiale aux États-Unis d'Amérique, de chose telle qu'une presse indépendante. Vous le savez et je le sais. Il n'y a pas un de vous qui ose écrire ses franches opinions, et si vous le faisiez, vous savez d'avance qu'elles ne seraient jamais publiées. Je suis hebdomadairement payé pour tenir mes franches opinions à distance du journal auquel je suis lié. D'autres d'entre vous reçoivent de mêmes émoluments pour des choses similaires, et n'importe lequel d'entre vous qui serait assez bête pour écrire de franches opinions serait à la rue à chercher un autre emploi. Si je laissais mes franches opinions être publiées dans l'une des parutions de mes journaux, mon emploi s'évaporerait avant vingt-quatre heures. Le boulot du journaliste est de détruire la vérité, de mentir effrontément, de pervertir, de diaboliser, de lécher les pieds de Mammon et de vendre son pays et sa race pour gagner son pain quotidien. Vous le savez et je le sais, et quelle folie est cette célébration d'une presse indépendante ? Nous sommes des pantins, ils tirent les ficelles et nous dansons. Nos talents, nos possibilités et nos vies sont tous la propriété d'autres hommes. Nous sommes des prostitués intellectuels..

➜ #3205374Non vi è nulla di simile, in questa fase della storia del mondo in America, come una stampa indipendente. Tu lo sai e io lo so. Non c'è nessuno di voi che osa scrivere le proprie opinioni oneste, e se l'avete fatto, si sa in anticipo che non apparirebbe mai in stampa Io sono pagato settimanalmente per tenere le mie opinioni oneste fuori dal giornale a cui sono collegato. Altri di voi sono pagati con stipendi simili per cose simili, e chiunque di voi che sarebbe sciocco da scrivere opinioni oneste sarebbe fuori per le strade in cerca di un altro lavoro. Se ho lasciato le mie opinioni oneste di apparire in una questione di mie carte, prima di 24 ore la mia occupazione sarebbe andato. L'attività del giornalista è quella di distruggere la verità, di mentire apertamente, di pervertire, di diffamare, di strisciare ai piedi di Mammona, e di vendere il suo paese e la sua razza per il suo pane quotidiano. Tu lo sai e io lo so, e che follia è questo brindare per una stampa indipendente? Noi siamo i burattini, loro tirano i fili e noi balliamo. I nostri talenti, le nostre possibilità e le nostre vite sono tutte proprietà di altri uomini. Noi siamo delle prostitute intellettuali.

➜ #6368464Det finnes ikke noe slikt som en uavhengig presse i dette stadiet verdenshistorien for USA. Du og jeg vet dette like godt. Det finnes ikke én eneste av dere som våger å skrive hva dere egentlig mener, og om dere gjorde, vet dere allerede at det aldri hadde kommet på trykk. Jeg blir betalt på ukentlig basis for å holde egne meninger borte fra avisa jeg har forbindelser til. Andre her blir betalt av liknende grunner, og dere som hadde vært dumme nok til å skrive hva dere egentlig mener, hadde føket rett på gata og vært på leting etter en ny jobb. Hvis jeg hadde tillatt mine egne meninger å dukke opp i én eneste utgave av en av avisene jeg skrive for, hadde stillingen min blitt likvidert innen de følgende tjuefire timene var omme. En journalist sin oppgave er å ødelegge sannheten, lyve rett til leserne, å forvrenge, å sverte, å krype ved føttene til Mammon og å gi opp landet sitt og rasen for å tjene litt småpenger. Du og jeg vet det like godt, og hva slags dumskap er denne feiringen av en uavhengig presse? Vi er sprellemennene; de drar i strengene, og vi danser. Talentene, mulighetene og livene våre er alle andre menns eiendom. Vi er intellektuelle ludder.

➜ #8333044Nykytilassa Amerikan yhdysvalloissa ei ole lainkaan puolueetonta lehdistöä. Te tiedätte sen ja minä tiedän sen. Kukaan teistä ei uskalla kirjoittaa rehellisiä mielipiteitään, ja jos uskaltaisi, tietäisi hän jo etukäteen, ettei niitä koskaan julkaistaisi. Joka viikko minulle maksetaan siitä, että pidän rehelliset mielipiteeni poissa sanomalehdestä, johon kirjoitan. Teille muille maksetaan vastaavia palkkoja vastaavista syistä, ja jos joku typeryyttään kirjoittaisi rehellisiä mielipiteitään, olisi hän kadulla muita töitä etsimässä. Jos sallisin rehellisten mielipiteideni näkyä yhdessäkin lehteni numerossa, olisi urani tuhottu ennen kuin kaksikymmentäneljä tuntia olisi kulunut. Toimittajan työnä on tuhota totuus, valehdella häpeämättömästi, vääristää, panetella, nöyristellä mammonan edessä ja myydä maansa ja lajinsa jokapäiväisen leipänsä eteen. Te tiedätte sen ja minä tiedän sen; mitä typeryyttä onkaan juhlistaa riippumatonta lehdistöä? Me olemme sätkynukkeja, jotka tanssivat heidän ohjeidensa mukaan. Kykymme, mahdollisuutemme ja elämämme ovat toisten miesten omaisuutta. Huoraamme älyämme.
