Working with the media remains an effective and essential way to raise issues, educate the public, and prod policy-makers and corporate leaders to change for the better.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The duty of the media is to observe truth and social responsibility.
It is difficult to overstate the importance of media as a tool to encourage civic engagement and participation, and the importance of a diverse and well-informed public.
The media's about to become a lot more effective.
The media is absolutely essential to the functioning of a democracy. It's not our job to cozy up to power. We're supposed to be the check and balance on government.
The democratic approach to news is a very valuable thing. We're always going to be dependent on the quality of reporting of mainstream media.
I am now using media as a tool to bring attention to marginalized people.
The media does play a vital role in our democracy, and if we cannot depend on journalistic ethics, the nation's in trouble.
There are a lot of good ideas that could benefit from big media. You have a lot of companies that hit a wall and can't get beyond a certain level. They need the infrastructure and distribution of a large company.
I respect very much the role of the media in our society; I think they can be very, very helpful. They serve as a very useful check, sort of a watchdog over the actions of the government, and I respect that.
The media cause more problems than they do good.
