“The proliferation of material means that people might start to become selective about what they consume and, if my instincts are correct, they are likely to read only that which confirms what they already know. This means they will never have their ideas tested. I worry that as a result, people will form tight groups around those who confirm their biases, mistrusting those whom they encounter who think differently.”
Una McCormack

Elisa Gabbert
“In the era of fake news - a natural extension of the era of news proper - we don't just look to the media for facts, we look to it for narratives.”
Elisa Gabbert, The Unreality of Memory: And Other Essays

Andrew Marr
“If the headline asks a question, try answering 'no'. Is This the True Face of Britain's Young? (Sensible reader: No.) Have We Found the Cure for AIDS? (No; or you wouldn't have put the question mark in.) Does This Map Provide the Key for Peace? (Probably not.) A headline with a question mark at the end means, in the vast majority of cases, that the story is tendentious or over-sold. It is often a scare story, or an attempt to elevate some run-of-the-mill piece of reporting into a national controversy and, preferably, a national panic. To a busy journalist hunting for real information a question mark means 'don't bother reading this bit'.”
Andrew Marr, My Trade: A Short History of British Journalism

“To be successful as a journalist, you must be curious and have a yearning for learning facts.”
Germany Kent

Michael Parenti
“In keeping with their system-sustaining function, the major news media present reality as a scatter of events and subjects that ostensibly bear little relation to each other or to a larger set of social relations.”

“Labeling an opposing opinion as ‘hate speech’ is not a defense. Rather, it highlights the lack of a defense.”

“Normal people apply butter on bread to feed their child, and most news anchor and reporter apply genocide victims' blood on bread to feed their children”

Stephen Nothum
“It was October 17th, 2084 and stupid opinions were illegal in the United States of America. Up until 2059 stupid opinions had been very legal, very common, and extremely monetized. You could make lots of money off stupid opinions back before 2059. Some people made zounds of money talking about how stupid the stupid opinions were. Other people made zounds of money defending stupid opinions and building a platform on the idea that—no matter how stupid an opinion was—it was each American’s right to have and promote stupid and dangerous opinions. Few people talked about worthwhile opinions then. Worthwhile opinions were not exciting. They did not get likes or views. If something didn’t get likes or views back then, it didn’t exist.

But it was 2084. A stupid opinion had not been shared online for 25 years. The internet had atrophied. It was just a big store now. The big store mostly sold banana-flavored cigarettes. Almost everyone smoked banana-flavored cigarettes.”
Stephen Nothum, Teething and Other Tales From the American Dystopia

John Irving
“If someone ever presumed to teach Charles Dickens or Thomas Hardy or Robertson Davies to my Bishop Strachan students with the same, shallow, superficial understanding that I'm sure *I* possess of world affairs--or, even, American wrongdoing--I would be outraged. I am a good enough English teacher to know that my grasp of American misadventures--even in Vietnam, not to mention Nicaragua--*is* shallow and superficial. Whoever acquired any real or substantive intelligence from reading *newspapers*? I'm sure I have no in-depth comprehension of American villainy; yet I can't leave the news alone! You'd think I might profit from my experience with ice cream. If I have ice cream in my freezer, I'll eat it--I'll eat *all* of it, all at once. Therefore, I've learned not to buy ice cream. Newspapers are even worse for me than ice cream; headlines, and the big issues that generate the headlines, are pure fat.”
John Irving, A Prayer for Owen Meany

Peter Sotos
“I've watched your face on TV, Mrs. Anderson. I've seen the photos and read the quotes. I think you knew she was dead but you wouldn't admit it. But I'm not sure why. Was it dire optimism? Did you think you could stave off the inevitable if you refused to acknowledge it, if you refused to admit the possibilities or to picture them in your mind's eye? Some sort of surreal hope or fear against jinxing providence?

Did praying help? Did it really help? Obviously, it didn't help change the situation but did it help you get through those two long weeks of uncertainty? Perhaps it helped to think that god has a plan for everything?”
Peter Sotos, Tool

David L. Wadley
“David felt that CNBC was the most critically essential yet significantly undervalued news network available to American citizens. He turned the television in his home office to this station 24/7. Unlike many other news outlets that tend to lean either too far to the right or the left, CNBC focused solely on information that impacts financial life.”
David L. Wadley

“One of the biggest threats to the U.S. government is a united population. This is why we continue to see the news media focus on social issues rather than focusing on the problems the government is doing nothing about.”
James Thomas Kesterson Jr

“Don’t mistake being informed by trusting what you hear or read in the news. The most trusted information is what you feel in your gut.”

“Don’t mistake being informed by trusting the media. The most trusted information you can get is from your gut.”

“Watching Al Jazeera news is like reading the encyclopaedia. You get to know about all that matters.”

“It seems like news media strive on bad things, bad people or bad situation. They are always happy to report bad news. That will scare people. They like to install fear in people's live.”
De philosopher DJ Kyos

Craig D. Lounsbrough
“Applying the term ‘hate speech’ has become the latest way to defend a position that cannot be defended by creating the appearance that you’re defending it.”

“Hate speech’ is the slight-of-hand used to distract people from the indefensibility of a position by making people feel sorry for it.”

“the most shameful generation in the future will be the generation of journalists & media personalities. They will be ashamed of being a generation of those who are directly involved in genocide and nothing more than a propaganda tool.”
Mohammed Zaki Ansari, "Zaki's Gift Of Love"

Roger Ebert
“It's said that Richard Harding Davis was dispatched by William Randolph Hearst to cover the Johnstown flood. Here was his lead: "God stood on a mountaintop here and looked at what his waters had wrought." Hearst cabled back: "Forget flood. Interview God.”

Joshua Krook
“The rules were simple, as far as I could tell. Being correct had nothing to do with substance and everything to do with style. The correct answer was a matter of yelling loudly. Whoever yelled the loudest was telling the greatest version of the truth. The title of the show was Objectivity.”
Joshua Krook, Black Friday 2050: The powerful psychological thriller set in a terrifying high-tech future

“Creating a website is akin to crafting a digital masterpiece, where each pixel and line of code serves a purpose. Begin by envisioning the essence of your website, its core message, and the audience it aims to captivate.

Embrace simplicity in design, allowing for intuitive navigation and seamless user experience. Remember, content reigns supreme; curate it with precision, blending creativity and relevance to engage your visitors.”
Jacob Mathison

Honoré de Balzac
“Journalism, so far from being in the hands of a priesthood, came to be first a party weapon, and then a commercial speculation, carried on without conscience or scruple, like other commercial speculations. Every newspaper, as Blondet says, is a shop to which people come for opinions of the right shade. If there were a paper for hunchbacks, it would set forth plainly, morning and evening, in its columns, the beauty, the utility, and necessity of deformity. A newspaper is not supposed to enlighten its readers, but to supply them with congenial opinions. Give any newspaper time enough, and it will be base, hypocritical, shameless, and treacherous; the periodical press will be the death of ideas, systems, and individuals; nay, it will flourish upon their decay. It will take the credit of all creations of the brain; the harm that it does is done anonymously. We, for instance—I, Claude Vignon; you, Blondet; you, Lousteau; and you, Finot—we are all Platos, Aristides, and Catos, Plutarch’s men, in short; we are all immaculate; we may wash our hands of all iniquity. Napoleon’s sublime aphorism, suggested by his study of the Convention, ‘No one individual is responsible for a crime committed collectively,’ sums up the whole significance of a phenomenon, moral or immoral, whichever you please. However shamefully a newspaper may behave, the disgrace attaches to no one person.”
Honoré de Balzac, Lost Illusions

Alexander Boldizar
“CNN discovered math, and within minutes all the stations except for Fox News were flashing "15x37=555" on background screens while overpaid anchors carried the three as they explained for those who couldn't read, multiply or follow the numbers.”
