Media
In the fifth season of the CBS television series The Amazing Race, the teams had to make their way to the Rotorua Museum where their next clue was a detour. From there they had the option of Clean or Dirty, teams that chose dirty had to search for their next clue at Hell's Gate while others who chose clean got to go whitewater river sledging at Okere Falls.
For the second series of Jack Osbourne: Adrenaline Junkie, Jack Obsbourne can be seen trying the white-water kayaking as a part of the show's challenge before making his way to Japan.

Famous quotes containing the word media:
“Never before has a generation of parents faced such awesome competition with the mass media for their children’s attention. While parents tout the virtues of premarital virginity, drug-free living, nonviolent resolution of social conflict, or character over physical appearance, their values are daily challenged by television soaps, rock music lyrics, tabloid headlines, and movie scenes extolling the importance of physical appearance and conformity.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
“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)
“The media no longer ask those who know something ... to share that knowledge with the public. Instead they ask those who know nothing to represent the ignorance of the public and, in so doing, to legitimate it.”
—Serge Daney (1944–1992)
