The one thing with the established and traditional media industries is that whenever something new comes along, they don't know what to make of it, and the natural reaction is to fight it or push back.

I think people are sort of waking up to it now, how probably the biggest change in Internet media isn't the immediacy of it, or the low costs, but the measurability. Which is actually terrifying if you're a traditional journalist, and used to pushing what people ought to like, or what you think they ought to like.

The media tries to do what they do. You can't stop. You gotta get money.

Unfortunately, the media, which are not at all reluctant to act in their own self-interest, have succeeded in equating reform in the public mind with further restrictions on just about everyone else's freedom of political speech.

From the subtle to the extreme, our culture and our values are under unrelenting attack from the media.

The media in America has become so cowed and compromised.

It is really the angling in the media that I do not like. That is how media can be rotten.

I never, ever have seen media this way. It's almost indescribable. Making up stories, refusing to run real stories. It's making themselves look like utter fools. There's no journalism, there is no media. There's pure, full-fledged advocacy here.

The media has become more forceful, has begun to recognize its traditional historic role and act on it, and truth is infectious.

We do live in this age of new media.
