In Media

The 2001 play The Legacy Codes, by American playwright Cherylene Lee, deals with the Wen Ho Lee case.

The 2007 play Yellow Face by Asian-American playwright David Henry Hwang places this incident in context to a greater number of cases dealing with racial profiling against Asians, particularly the Chinese during the 1980s.

The 2010 short film The Profile by American film maker Ray Arthur Wang is inspired by the Wen Ho Lee case.

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)

    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)
