Noam Chomsky “If you believed something different, you wouldn’t be sitting where you’re sitting.”

Noam Chomsky suggests that the majority of journalists think that theirs “is a crusading profession, ‘we stand up against power’. A very self-serving view.” Chomsky argues that they hold this “self-serving view” despite the fact that “the media is a sham”, owned by wealthy men who run their institutions in their own interests.

Marr misinterprets Chomsky, asking him “how can you know that I’m self-censoring?”

Chomsky replies, “I don’t say you’re self-censoring. I’m sure you believe everything you say. What I’m saying is that if you believed something different you wouldn’t be sitting where you’re sitting.”
