Summary

This quote emphasizes the long-lasting impact of journalism compared to the relatively short-term authority of a presidential term. While a president's term is limited to four years, the influence wielded by journalism extends far beyond any individual's tenure. Journalism, through its reporting and investigative efforts, has the power to shape public opinion, hold those in power accountable, and inform the population long after a president's time in office. It highlights the critical role that journalism plays in upholding democracy and being a lasting force in society.
