It appeared again in season 3, this time directly explaining the events of Flight 961. Most recently, it featured in the season 10 episode covering US Airways Flight 1549, to explain the dangers of Captain Sullenberger's attempt to land on the Hudson River.

Famous quotes containing the word media:

    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)
