Media Outlets Exaggerated

Famous quotes containing the words media and/or exaggerated:

“Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so—called educational system, which is nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one’s ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture. The media and the “educational system” are the prime sources of racism in the United States.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

“The shadows of things are greater than themselves; and the more exaggerated the shadow, the more unlike the substance.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
