“It has been said, "History is written by the victors." I take this to mean we can make ourselves victorious by writing, and then rewriting our own stories. In a country and culture so dominated by media, by the manipulation of words and stories, telling the tales of people whose stories historically have not been told is a radical act and I believe an act that can change the world and help rewrite history.” PeopleWorldWritingBelieveMeanHas BeensSaidCountryHelpingStoriesCultureI BelieveWrittenMediaTalesRadicalChanging The WorldManipulationRewriting Author:Jennifer Beals
“At the demonstration of sixty feminists against the Miss America Pageant in 1968, when the women filled a trash can with bras, girdles, curlers and spike-heeled shoes, the bra-burning myth was launched by the media and, in spite of its inaccuracy and spiteful intent, put radical feminism on the map.” AmericaFeminismMediaMissingFilledShoesFeministMythRadicalBurningSpiteMapsSixtyTrashDemonstrationRadical FeminismBrasPageantSpitefulGirdlesMiss AmericaTrash Cans Author:Hilda Scott

“Andrew Breitbart, self-described media mogul, had several screws loose or missing and was the grinning bomb-thrower of the radical right.

“The religiously observant is lumped in with the nominal Muslim, the nominal Muslim is lumped in with the non-Muslim and the radical. If we want to make sense of this mess and stop pushing Muslims into the arms of the extremist, we need to make meaningful distinctions between the religion of Islam that a billion Muslims follow and see as a guidance as a peaceful righteous moral life and the puritanical Islam of a minority which so captures the media's attention.” IfsWantNeedsAttentionMoralMediaArmsIslamBillionsMeaningfulPeacefulMessRadicalMake SenseGuidanceDistinctionMinoritiesPushingCaptureRighteousExtremistObservantMoral LifeReligion Of Islam Author:Reza Aslan
“The key question facing those of us working in the media (old and new) is whether we embrace and adapt to the radical changes brought about by the Internet or pretend that we can somehow hop into a journalistic Way Back Machine and return to a past that no longer exists and can't be resurrected. There is no question that, as the industry moves forward and we figure out the new rules of the road, there will be - and needs to be - a great deal of experimentation with new revenue models.” WayNeedsPastMovingDealsMediaFiguresKeysIndustryReturnInternetModelsMachinesEmbraceMoving ForwardRadicalHopsRevenueExperimentationJournalisticRadical ChangeOld And New Author:Arianna Huffington
“I do not believe so many Turks suspect my activities. The idea that this movement of volunteers is suspected by many Turks arises in the same way and for the same reasons that the world hears more about those Muslims whom the media call radicals.

“With the media, we don't know what's true, and we don't have radical transparency because we're seeing everything through somebody else's eyes. There's no other industry that has as much power and as much freedom and as little quality control. I can't imagine how anyone could not think that's a problem.” ThinkingKnowsLittlesI CanProblemEyeQualityImagineSeeingMediaIndustryRadicalTransparencyQuality Control Author:Ray Dalio
