"The job of the financial journalist was to examine the sharks who created interest crises and speculated away the savings of small investors, to scrutinise company boards with the same merciless zeal with which political reporters pursue the tiniest steps out of line of ministers and members of the Parliament. He could not for the life of him understand why so many influential financial reporters treated mediocre financial whelps lik rock stars."

— The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson (Millenium, #1)
