Mr. Powers : I don't want any more economists, sages, or oracles bombinating over our cables. I want a reporter! Somebody who doesn't know the difference between an -ism and a kangaroo. A good, honest crime reporter. That's what the Globe needs. That's what Europe needs. There's a crime hatching on that bedeviled continent. ... Mr. Powers : How would you like to cover the biggest story in the world today? John Jones : Give me an expense account and I'll cover anything. Mr. Powers : I'll give you an expense account. John Jones : Okay, What's the story? Mr. Powers : Europe. John Jones : Well, I'm afraid I'm not exactly equipped, sir, but I can do some reading up. Mr. Powers : No no, no reading up. I like you just as you are, Mr. Jones. What Europe needs is a fresh, unused mind. John Jones : Foreign correspondent, huh? Powers : No, reporter. I don't want correspondence, I want news.
