What, exactly, is the difference between literature and journalism.

The maker of literature strives to say a thing


once and for all time; while the journalist says it over and over, with slight variations, every day or week or
month. And since ninety-nine per cent of the money paid out for written words is paid for journalism, it
follows that ninety-nine per cent of the writers must be journalists, no matter what capacity they may have to
produce literature.
