I believe that in Murrow's quote that is said to the Radio and Television News Directors Association, he is trying to express the fact that he believes standing up for what you believe in is the right thing and that is the only way someone should be judged. It represents who you really are. Therefore, Murrow is also saying in this quote that the radio and/or television are not just objects used to entertain. They should be used to stay aware of vital information and views of many on subjects in the country.
I certainly agree with Murrow's thoughts because he is right about it all. Yes, the television and radio are used for entertainment purposes, but at the same time everyone needs to go back to the bigger picture. Looking past the entertainment and fiction, we need to use the instruments in the right way, and realize what is taking place in the real world.
