Famous quotes containing the words journalist and/or media:

    “A statesman is an easy man,
    He tells his lies by rote;
    A journalist makes up his lies
    And takes you by the throat;
    So stay at home and drink your beer
    And let the neighbours vote.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The media have just buried the last yuppie, a pathetic creature who had not heard the news that the great pendulum of public conciousness has just swung from Greed to Compassion and from Tex-Mex to meatballs.”
    —Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
