Page One: Inside the New York Times Quote

Shane Smith: I'm a regular guy and I go to these places and I go, OK, everyone talked to me about cannibalism, right? Everyone talked about cannibalism. Now I'm getting a lot of shit for talking about cannibalism. Whatever. Everyone talked to me about cannibalism! That's fucking crazy! So the actual... our audience goes, 'That's fucking insane, like, that's nuts!' The New York Times, meanwhile, is writing about surfing, and I'm sitting there going like, 'You know what? I'm not going to talk about surfing, I'm going to talk about cannibalism, because that fucks me up.'
David Carr: Just a sec. Time out. Before you ever went there, we've had reporters there reporting on genocide after genocide. Just because you put on a fucking safari helmet and looked at some poop doesn't give you the right to insult what we do. So, continue.
