“Television has proved that people will look at anything rather than each other.”
Ann Landers
“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
Maya Angelou
“I'm always amazed that people will actually choose to sit in front of the television and just be savaged by stuff that belittles their intelligence.”
Alice Walker
“I don't know why people think that somehow the First Amendment applies to network television. It doesn't. It's like the way free speech doesn't apply at work. You can't just walk into your boss' office and say 'you're a fuckface and I'm gonna go back to work now.' No, you're not.”
Jon Stewart
“Network television is not interested in civil rights; they're interested in making money. If things that will generate money are diverse in any way, so be it, but if not, they'll go in the other direction.”
Todd Boyd
“People may not have heard of Current TV, but they will have heard that Al Gore has a television station.”
JD Lasica
“Critics want 'fresh,' ... But long-running television shows aren't built that way. When people tune into 'Will & Grace,' they don't want new actors in the roles. They don't want a new setting: They don't want to suddenly see it taking place in Miami. The freshness must be strictly internal, how we do little things. The big picture is not gonna change that much.”
Eric McCormack
