“The bigotry question goes both ways. There's a lot more anti-Christian bigotry today than there is concerning the other side. None of it gets covered by the news media.” WayTodayChristianSidesMediaNewsBigotryCoveredNews MediaAnti Christian Author:Newt Gingrich
“I think a bigger difference with social media is going to be things like the impact Instagram will have for historians. For the longest time, we had no images of the past. And then when we had the advent of the camera, we had a record of the things people chose to photograph, which, for a while, were portraits of your family, a new building we built, or a really big horse. Well now we have images of everything. That will be the biggest difference I think - that we will have a visual record of this reality in a way that will be completely covered.” PeopleThinkingWayWellsBigsRealityPastSocialDifferencesRecordsMediaBuildingBuiltBiggerHorseCamerasImpactPhotographSocial MediaOur FamilyVisualsCoveredHistorianPortraitsInstagramAdvent Author:Chuck Klosterman
“For too long, reporters for the big media outlets have been fixated on novelty, always moving too quickly onto the next big score or the next hot get. Paradoxically, in these days of instant communication and sixty-minute news cycles, it's actually easier to miss information we might otherwise pay attention to. That's why we need stories to be covered and re-covered until they filter up enough to become part of the cultural bloodstream.” NeedsLongHas BeensEnoughStoriesBigsMightMovingNextPayAttentionMinutesMediaMissingInformationCommunicationEasierNewsHotPay AttentionThese DaysInstantScoreCyclesCoveredSixtyReportersOutletsNoveltyFiltersAlways MovingInstant CommunicationSixty Minutes Author:Arianna Huffington
“There was no news in the Dan Rather piece. They didn't say [to Bush]: "We found a piece of paper that was overlooked in the 300,000 pieces of paper that were covered in the Iran-Contra hearings, and we have a piece of news we'd like to ask you about." CBS decided to create a media event and cover it in its own fashion. This was unprecedented in American history.

“For a long period of time, the media covered rap music and hip hop the same way they cover a lot of black people, people of color, you know, the bad news happens to be news. They used to have these little stupid colloquialisms that pop up like, "You know what? No news is bad news!" They trick the masses into thinking that any news is great for you.

“Let me say, it's - what a commentary it is on American media that you have to go to Russian television in order to get covered as a candidate in this election. It's pretty outrageous. And our media could solve that in a heartbeat if they actually opened it up, you know, but they don't. So I think that's more commentary on the crisis in our media.” IfsThinkingKnowsOrderMediaTelevisionLet MeElectionCrisisSolveCandidatesCoveredHeartbeatOutrageousCommentaryAmerican Media Author:Jill Stein
