“The excuse of divided government is over: they have the House and the Senate as well; they have the state legislatures; they have a majority of the governors. And that's exciting. But for me, I think the lesson also is all the opportunities out there for women, increasingly in politics and media and public policy and government affairs - all the things we do here in Washington - that we still have to make choices, there are limits.” ThinkingWellsStillsStatesGovernmentChoicesOpportunityHouseMediaPolicyLessonsLimitsExcitingMajorityAffairExcuseDividedSenateGovernorsLegislaturePublic PolicyState LegislaturesDivided Government Author:Kellyanne Conway
“It's hard to predict what will happen as reading on screen becomes more of a universal norm, and when the formats dictated by social media - Twitter's 140-character limit, for instance - start to influence what we're used to.” HardCharacterHappensUsedReadingSocialInfluenceMediaLimitsUniversalSocial MediaScreensInstanceNormFormat140 Character Author:Michael Bierut
