Quote by Carl Hiaasen
Good satire comes from anger. It comes from a sense of injustice,

Good satire comes from anger. It comes from a sense of injustice, that there are wrongs in the world that need to be fixed. And what better place to get that well of venom and outrage boiling than a newsroom, because youre on the front lines. – Carl Hiaasen
