BOB GARFIELD: Oh, so you're on your way to the Shorenstein Center at Harvard to study media issues. Will you tell your students, yeah, take careful notes, and bring a big wad of cash? TOM FIEDLER: [LAUGHS] I would tell them not to do that. I would tell them to try every possible way to avoid that kind of a situation. I know there are times when a source will say, look -- the only way I can give you this information, if I lose my job I need some kind of help, and so, you know, as a journalist you might look around and say, well, how can I help? Maybe I can see to it that this person can get another job. There are ways around, I would hope, just pulling out a checkbook and putting a bunch of zeros after a number.
