“I spent more than ten years working on the Neues Museum. It was a wonderful experience, an example of real collaboration between architects, conservationists, curators, client, politicians, the media, and the public. Discussions, even when difficult, were always about ideas. Ideas matter to Germans. They're a reflective people. That's attractive.” PeopleYearsIdeasRealMatterDifficultWonderfulMediaExamplePoliticianTenDiscussionAttractiveMuseumsCollaborationArchitectClientsWonderful ExperienceCurator Author:David Chipperfield
“The premise of most media is that only conflict is newsworthy. And that's just not true. I think for a lot of men, too - certainly for most women - there's enough real conflict without manufacturing it. The media formula is always to have a pro and con, to say there are two sides to any issue, when in fact there may be ten sides.” ThinkingMenMayTwoRealEnoughFactsSidesIssuesMediaTenConflictFormulasPremisesManufacturingTwo SidesPros And ConsNewsworthy Author:Gloria Steinem

“What we need more of is slow art: art that holds time as a vase holds water: art that grows out of modes of perception and making whose skill and doggedness make you think and feel; art that isn’t merely sensational, that doesn’t get its message across in ten seconds, that isn’t falsely iconic, that hooks onto something deep-running in our natures. In a word, art that is the very opposite of mass media.” ThinkingNeedsFeelsArtRunningGrowsWaterMediaTenSkillsPerceptionMessagesMassOppositesSecondsHookMake You ThinkIconicMass MediaSensationalVasesDoggedness Author:Robert Hughes
“I had just been doing graffiti around New York and this real estate investor guy had walked through meat packing in New York and saw some of my graffiti. He was impressed and asked if I sold canvases. I really had not made any canvases of my graffiti work yet, but told him I could make one for him. He then commissioned me to make ten paintings and put on my first art show. Between the sold out show and the cops chasing after me it created a lot of media and I've been doing really well since then.” IfsFirstsWellsArtMadeRealShowsGuySawsMediaNew YorkPaintingTenMeatInvestorsCopImpressedEstatesChasingGraffitiPackingSold Out Author:Alec Monopoly
“In attempting to understand 9/11, the first question asked by the world's elites - as exemplified by leading media and academics - was, 'What did America do to provoke such hatred?' Ten years later, the same people are still asking the same question. And it is as morally repulsive now as it was then. It was always on par with 'What did the Jews do to antagonize the Germans? Or 'What did blacks do to enrage lynch mobs?'” PeopleWorldYearsFirstsStillsAmericaMediaTenHatredAskingJewElitesProvokingAttemptingQuestions Asked Author:Dennis Prager
“I feel like you have to go looking for spoilers.

“To have or not to have [chemical weapons] is a possibility, but to depend on what media says is nonsense, or to depend on some of the reports of the intelligence is nonsense and that was proven when they invaded Iraq ten years ago and they said "Iraq has stockpiles of WMD" and it was proven after the invasion that this was false ; it was fraud. So, we can't depend on what one magazine wrote.” YearsSaidMediaPossibilityDependsTenWeaponsYears AgoIraqMagazinesReportsNonsenseChemicalsFraudProvenThey SaidInvasionWmdChemical Weapons Author:Bashar al-Assad
