  REPORTER,  n.  A  writer  who  guesses  his  way  to  the  truth  and  dispels  it 
  with  a  tempest  of  words 
 
  "More  dear  than  all  my  bosom  knows  O  thou 
  Whose  'lips  are  sealed'  and  will  not  disavow!" 
  So  sang  the  blithe  reporter-man  as  grew 
  Beneath  his  hand  the  leg-long  "interview."
