• Como miembro de los principales medios de comunicación durante muchos años, sólo he aprendido una cosa: a no fiarme nunca de nada de lo que leo en los principales medios de comunicación, no porque haya una agenda o un disimulo deliberado, sino simplemente porque está filtrado y procede muy a menudo de alguien en cuyo juicio podría no confiar en otras circunstancias.

• The mainstream media today has the biggest disconnect with its audience that it's ever, ever had. And as the disconnect grows and as more and more people distrust them, then the media digs in more and more and says you don't know what you're talking about, you don't know how we do our jobs, you don't know what's important.

• Nos habría sido imposible desarrollar nuestro plan para el mundo
  si hubiéramos estado sometidos a las luces de la publicidad durante esos años.
  Pero, el mundo es ahora más sofisticado y preparado para marchar hacia un
  gobierno mundial. La soberanía supranacional de una élite intelectual
  y banqueros mundiales es seguramente preferible a la autodeterminación nacional
  autodeterminación nacional practicada en siglos pasados.

• Desde los años sesenta, los medios de comunicación dominantes han buscado y cooptado lo más auténtico que han podido encontrar en la cultura juvenil, ya fuera la cultura psicodélica, la cultura antibelicista o la cultura de los vaqueros. Con el tiempo, la cultura del heavy metal, el rap, la electrónica... la buscarán y la comercializarán entre los chavales del centro comercial.

• Damn it, if just 5% of people got motivated in some direction, and it doesn't necessarily have to be what I believe in, but if they just got motivated and stopped getting their political ideologies from the mainstream media, they would go out and figure out what they want.

• My experience is that journalists report on the nearest-cliche algorithm, which is extremely uninformative because there aren't many cliches, the truth is often quite distant from any cliche, and the only thing you can infer about the actual event was that this was the closest cliche. It is simply not possible to appreciate the sheer awfulness of mainstream media reporting until someone has actually reported on you. It is so much worse than you think.

• But you're never taught in schools - we don't teach anyone in public schools that government is the problem. We don't teach anyone in college that government is the problem - except maybe a handful of sort of unique, conservative schools. But mainstream media never talks as if government is the problem.

• Primarily affecting low-information voters and members of the mainstream media, Obama Worship Syndrome attributes impossible capabilities to Obama's political opponents, finds excuses for every Obama failure in everyone around him and praises the president as the finest politician - nay, human being - of our time.

• Asking the question whether the mainstream media has a liberal or conservative bias is like asking whether al Qaeda uses too much oil in their hummus. I might think they use a little bit too much oil; some people might think it's a little dry. But the problem with al Qaeda is they want to kill us. And the problem with the mainstream media is that it has these other biases that are much more important.

• If you're working on better conditions for prisoners, if you make that a popular issue and you invite mainstream media to weigh in on that subject, you're going to end up with a much more regressive public-policy environment than if you approach it in a quieter way. It's not because the public is stupid, it's just that people with only a cursory interest in something are going to have a knee-jerk reaction to it. That's impossible to explain in a cable-news media... it doesn't make sense.

• Referring to professor Muller's Berkely Earth Surface Temperature Project, "The Best project's treatment of science and of the public has been shoddy. That so many so-called reporters in the mainstream media should have been so uncritical and accepting of what was clearly misrepresentation is shocking. Once again they have been found to be supporters and advocates for a particular point of view when they should have been critical commentators and journalists. Climate science is important. It deserves better.

• Para mí, la parte más gratificante y estimulante del periodismo es escuchar directamente a personas cuyas voces no se han escuchado a menudo o no se han incorporado a los medios de comunicación convencionales. Eso es muy, muy gratificante, así que darme cuenta de que se puede hacer una carrera de esa parte, eso me atrajo.

• I think it is less the limited amount of information than the filters that information about the Middle East must pass through before being fairly addressed in the mainstream media. In more intellectual and geopolitical terms, the perceptions of the region are distorted by a combination of Orientalism and the priorities of the state of Israel, including the refusal to discuss the relevance of Israel's nuclear weapons arsenal in the context of addressing Iran on its nuclear program.

• The behavior of the Occupy Wall Street protesters has raised some curious questions about the continuing double standards in our society. When it comes to fascistic leftist behavior, our mainstream media overlooks and excuses it - while conservatives are demonized and blamed for every dead sparrow that falls from the sky.

• Tienes que convencer a la gente de que los Drive-By Media, los grandes medios de comunicación, nunca nos van a apoyar, y si sigues definiendo el éxito político como que los medios nos apoyen y no apoyen a un demócrata, nunca vas a estar contento, porque eso nunca va a ocurrir. Y si esa sigue siendo tu medida del éxito, entonces te van a engañar todas y cada una de las veces.
