Franklin Roosevelt actually said...

"Once the public realizes that its newspaper serves no interest save that of truth it will give that paper an allegiance that neither depression nor ill-fortune nor any form of hard times can weaken."

"It is corollary of our democracy that the public can be depended upon to assess problems and policies at their true value if facts are presented as facts, and opinion as opinion—each in its true light..."

"A free press... will serve no cause but that of truth and which will recognize no master but justice."

"In all this he who serves the cause of truth will best serve the national interest."
