“One must select wisely a source of news; otherwise it would be better to be uninformed than misinformed.” — Ezra Taft Benson

Mark Twain? Denzel Washington? Thomas Jefferson? Thomas Fuller? Orville Hubbard? Ezra Taft Benson? Apocryphal?
Question for Quote Investigator: A cynical attitude toward the media is widespread today, but this is not a new development. Supposedly, Mark Twain made the following remark:
If you don’t read the newspaper you are uninformed; if you do read the newspaper you are misinformed.
Are these really the words of the famous humorist?

I love the investigation of quotes done on this website. They do a real service to prevent misattribution.
Kudos!
