Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Adventures of a Newspaper Man The word "reporter" means a good deal more than it used to mean, for nowadays, on a popular and successful paper, the reporter is not just a man who takes down speeches in shorthand. He is a diplomat, business organiser, detective, man of affairs, politician, all rolled into one. Ready must be his tongue; quick his decision. He must be prepared to take chances, and take them quickly. He must know how not to be brow-beaten by those in high places. The exchanges of the dog fancier in the East End must find him with the same acquainted mind as the conversation of the peeress's guests assembled for a Tariff Reform afternoon in a Belgrave Square drawing-room.
