If the League were real, today, they’d most likely be sued by every person they ever saved. They’d be subpoenaed by every authority in every jurisdiction imaginable; hearings upon hearings. There’d be waves of accolades followed by tsunamis of boos from social media.
I’ve been very careful to always make clear that I am a real person. That’s why I’m on social media a lot.
I am a huge advocate for anti-bullying in our youth. What I have seen with the rise of social media is that children are not facing bullying on a playground, they are facing it on their cell phones.
When I moved to New York City to go college, my mother said, ‘If you want to be recognized, you need to go out to a club.’ Because we didn’t have computers. We didn’t have social media. We didn’t even have cellphones. So you had to go out to be recognized.
The media can be a really strong vehicle.
I share so much of my life on social media, and I love the honest connection with the people that follow me.
I think that people post to social media to help shape their public identity.

The media tries to do what they do. You can’t stop. You gotta get money.
I’m not an introvert. I’m media shy.
People should never allow themselves to be dictated to by media.
I just think women should love themselves more than they do. Because I think – with all the social media stuff – we look at ourselves too much, and we just destroy ourselves when we’re way cooler than we know.
Social media is reducing social barriers. It connects people on the strength of human values, not identities.
The British media is sinking down, as the American news media has lowered the bar for all of humanity. British news media is definitely trying to stoop down to that level. Everyone is stooping to the lowest common denominator.
I left the ‘Trib’ in 1970 with the feeling that I would never have a career in establishment media of any kind.
I’ve propelled myself into the media world and I’ve been able to get my style of cooking across with my personality.
Social media isn’t a one-way broadcast; it’s a multiway opportunity for dialogue.
It is possible to have a pretty good life and career being a leech and a parasite in the media world, gadding about from TV studio to TV studio, writing inconsequential pieces and having a good time.
Climate change is the 800-pound gorilla in the living room that the media dances around. But in the scientific community, it’s a settled question: 95 percent of scientists believe this is happening with 100 percent confidence temperatures are rising.
You, the foreign media, have been the companion of my people in its long and painful journey to freedom.
The bedroom is an archetype. To me it stands for a lot of the silliness of our modern culture where the kind of things that we worship in our sacred spaces are based on media and movies because we don’t really have much else in the way of myths, if that makes sense.
Media failed to notice that not one member of Donald’s family, apart from his children, his son-in-law and his current wife said a word of support of him during the entire campaign.
I don’t know how, at an age when you’re trying to put your identity together, how you cope with the pressure of a performance space, which is what social media is.
People have their own opinions but sometimes with the media things get chopped up and cut around to make stories out of it.
I grew up in a family where no one had written a newspaper or magazine article about anybody in my family for a hundred years, right? Then, all of a sudden, we’re getting one millennium’s worth of media attention in six months.
But in the right-wing media, they do have a right-wing bias. And they also have an agenda. So their agenda is: we’re an adjunct of the Republican Party, and we’re going push that agenda every day, and, as you say, brand these stories that help further the right-wing cause.
The first thing I organized around was the Central Park Five case for the young men who were accused. We talked about the unfair misrepresentation of these young teenagers in the media. I’ve been fighting back against Donald Trump for a long time.
Never has the political class or the mainstream media that covers them been more out of touch with the American people than they are today.
I would like to point to the extraordinary lengths the mainstream media will go to maintain a sensationalist story.
I don’t get Twitter or social media. I really don’t understand it or read it. I see it as a distraction.
The media portrayal of women is always angled towards looking thinner and skinnier and… that’s not good.
We do live in this age of new media.
Ought we not to ask the media to agree among themselves a voluntary code of conduct, under which they would not say or show anything which could assist the terrorists’ morale or their cause while the hijack lasted.
Social media are a catalyst for the advancement of everyone’s rights. It’s where we’re reminded that we’re all human and all equal. It’s where people can find and fight for a cause, global or local, popular or specialized, even when there are hundreds of miles between them.
The Republicans ought to be nowhere near trying to help Obama save his bacon. But they don’t think that’s what they’re doing, I’m convinced. You talk about trauma and the need for therapy, I really think that the Republicans have been genuinely psychologically traumatized by decades of media criticism.
The media thinks that only the cutting edge of science, the very latest controversies, are worth reporting on. How often do you see headlines like ‘General Relativity still governing planetary orbits’ or ‘Phlogiston theory remains false’? By the time anything is solid science, it is no longer a breaking headline.
You need to be able to work with people. Especially in football, it is not a QB’s game… even though the media likes to make it into that – it takes the whole team.
Though many in the media do their best to conceal the achievements of President Trump on behalf of women, we are confident that women nationwide have taken notice and will use the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage to reelect President Trump on November 3, 2020.
I am not against privatisation of the media channels but I stand for a strong regulation and transparency.
Even though I don’t agree with either Sarah Palin or Michele Bachmann on virtually anything, I do think the unique scrutiny – because of their gender and highlighting the potential conflict between them is a product of the media’s desire for juicy storylines. I think it’s inappropriate.
Back in the ’80s, I was known for being reclusive, often shying away from media attention.
We are the United States of Amnesia, which is encouraged by a media that has no desire to tell us the truth about anything, serving their corporate masters who have other plans to dominate us.
It is now a pleasure to go to any of the Premier League grounds. They are so welcoming, not just to me but to all the broadcasters – all media, really, you have to say.
I became very famous, as a teenager, and my name and photo were splashed in all the media. They made me larger than life, so I wanted to live larger than life, and the only way to do that was to be intoxicated.
Public opinion can be influential, the media can be influential.
One of the problems that we face through the media attention that these artists receive is that there has been an awful lot of talk about opera and classical music being elite and being for an elitist group.
Mr. Modi is responsible for everyone’s misery, demonetisation disaster, destruction of all democratic institutions. He is creating problems for everybody: for political leaders, for media, for corporates. He is not following any democratic values.
There’s been this sort of attitude in media in the past in this country that it’s not our job to fall on one side or the other. But what I’m suggesting is that in this day and age, there is no deciding not to fall on one side of the other. You’re going to be on a side, so you’ve got to lean in and choose the right one.
Just look at the messages today’s media are sending everybody, from TV and commercials to actors and singers. Kids are just drowning in that 24-7 and it’s getting really bad.
Since the time of Richard Nixon, there has been a strange lack of will in the media to identify the real cause for Americans’ anger at politicians who fall, publicly and spectacularly.
His father is governor of Media, and though he has the greatest command given him of all the rest of my generals, he still covetously desires more, and my being without issue spurs him on to this wicked design. But Philotas takes wrong measures.
I did a degree in media and culture studies in London and moved there when I was eighteen from Paris.
If you’re writing a show about modern media moguls, Rupert Murdoch and his family are an incredibly important model and some of their disputes and the dynamics have been very vivid.
