Famous quotes containing the words journalism and/or media:

    In journalism it is simpler to sound off than it is to find out. It is more elegant to pontificate than it is to sweat.
    Harold Evans (b. 1928)

    Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so—called educational system, which is nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one’s ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture. The media and the “educational system” are the prime sources of racism in the United States.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
