“War of words. We are influenced by the western media. But is what we hear the truth or just PR campaigns for governments?”

“Beauty is the PR campaign of the soul.”

“Media are epistemologies. Every medium implies a particular way of thinking about things, influences to great extent what things we will think about, and how we will think about them.”

“{President] Kayibanda's government [in Rwanda] continued the persecution against the Tutsis and began to make use of the media it controlled to launch a propaganda campaign against us. In a country where more than half the people cannot read or write and very few have televisions, radio is the dominant media. The fact that some newspapers were still printing the truth didn't matter much to the part of the population that couldn't read.Most of the literate people were already politically aware. While an educated person might question what they read or hear from the media, the uneducated tend to accept it. The uneducated are more easily affected by threats and the emotional trauma that propaganda like this can create.”

“The purpose of influence is to "speak up for those who have no influence." (Pr.31:8) It's not about you.”

“Through it [literature] we know the past, govern the present, and influence the future.”
