Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or media:

    Party action should follow, not precede the creation of a dominant popular sentiment.
    J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)

    The media no longer ask those who know something ... to share that knowledge with the public. Instead they ask those who know nothing to represent the ignorance of the public and, in so doing, to legitimate it.
    Serge Daney (1944–1992)
