I think the love-hate is fundamental. Everyone hates reality television, and everyone's watching it. Everyone hates Facebook, and everyone is on it.
CNN doesn't waste time trying to solve a crisis or educate the viewer.
No disrespect to Kevin McCloud, Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer, but that's the last thing I want to watch when I get home.
I'm getting really fed up with the way that girls and women get portrayed a lot of the time.
In day-to-day commerce, television is not so much interested in the business of communications as in the business of delivering audiences to advertisers. People are the merchandise, not the shows. The...
I've often said in the past that I thought MTV was sort of evil incarnate and signified the beginning of the end. And I don't know if I'm entirely wrong about that, but they did sign my paychecks a...
We are in the middle of a big swamp of ignorance that is taught by a lot of nonsense, propaganda, absurdity, amalgams. I have a hard time listening to any speech. You feel like you want to stop the TV...

Reality TV to me is the museum of social decay.
A typical 'Larry King Live' is a pastiche whose absurdism defies parody. Wearing his trademark suspenders and purple shirts, he looks as if he's strapped to the chair with vertical seat belts, unable...
'Hotel Rwanda' is an American product, not a Rwandan one, made primarily for American audiences.

It was the Law of the Sea, they said. Civilization ends at the waterline. Beyond that, we all enter...
Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.
The Edge... there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is...
If I'd written all the truth I knew for the past ten years, about 600 people - including me - would...
Silence is only frightening to people who are compulsively verbalizing.
