What is the typical spy? To start with, they think that they are on a mission to save the world. The worlds of Matt Damon and Daniel Craig are slick, fast-paced and sexy. Their suits never crinkle, women always say yes, and their cars shoot missiles. Real-life spy sagas unfold with far less panache. Overseas research has shown intelligence agents at the CIA to be often college graduates with low-value degrees; they are outsiders or loners, they have family or friends in the intelligence or armed services, they can't work with money and love firearms.

What does mean a journalist? In my view, a journalist, who has not any improper, wrong and favouring connections with any party, groups or religious schools of thought; he, who just writes the facts and realities regardless caste, creed and colour, and the personal interests. He, who respects every person as a human with dignity and honour; he, who is not a tool of the masterminds. The journalistic principle is only “fairness with morality.” A real journalist is more than the holy person because, that person, maybe anyone of any particular religion, but a journalist is for all the humans; he, who has not such qualities, can be everything, but not a journalist.

Do you know what a journalist is? Someone who hasn't written a novel yet.
