The networks are not some chicken-coop manufacturing lobby whose calls nobody returns.
~By Ralph Nader ~
The current wisdom now is that if the three networks are covering the news the same way the difference is the anchor people. I think that won't be true in the future.
~By Roone Arledge ~
Inside a religious body you get sects and hierarchies, inside an information network you get bazaars and cathedrals, it is the same, call them what you like. They survive by pointing the finger of blame at each other.
~By Mary Douglas ~
It was really fun. It was fun for a lot of reasons. It was fun because nobody thought that we would be successful. It was on a network that wasn't even there at the time.
~By Katey Sagal ~
In a country with an overabundance of food, no one should go hungry because of a lack of funds or technical and professional knowledge. We have the food, and we have the networks; we now need to support the providers.
~By Jose Serrano ~
I can say now: all the combatants who participated in the fight for freedom in South America came to Algeria; it's from there that all those who fought left. We trained them, we arranged for the weapons to reach them, we created networks.
~By Ahmed Ben Bella ~
No, I was talking to the network and Universal about plans for a third season where Buck would go back to Earth and would focus on stories around the planet and show what it was like 500 years later.
~By Gil Gerard ~
Once again the mastermind was Lionel Curtis, and the earlier Round Table Groups and Institutes of International Affairs were used as nuclei for the new network.
~By Carroll Quigley ~
Just about any story we think about doing, whether we've read it in a newspaper, heard it on the radio or come upon it through word of mouth - by the time you get there, every other network, cable station and talk show is already racing to the scene.
~By Connie Chung ~
I don't think a show's ever changed networks in the middle of the season before, but it was cool because they gave us those extra couple years of life that was necessary to get us to syndication.
~By Donal Logue ~
Men still get a lot more opportunity. It is still a big part of the old boy network. They have more companies they can get money from.
~By Billie Jean King ~
We continued the hard work of integrating TWA, because at that time we still thought an efficient connecting hub in St. Louis could be a profitable addition to our network.
~By Gerard Arpey ~
During the days of segregation, there was not a place of higher learning for African Americans. They were simply not welcome in many of the traditional schools. And from this backward policy grew the network of historical black colleges and universities.
~By Michael N. Castle ~
When we get involved in the ratings, then we're doing the network's job. We need to focus on our work.
~By William Petersen ~
If I hadn't had the talent, the networks wouldn't have televised my fights. No one has made me; I made myself. I paid my dues.
~By Sugar Ray Leonard ~
I believe that people who do not vote in this country have no right to complain about the government that we are now living under. By the same token, if you don't really vote in television, you're never going to have your way. Write a letter to the president of the network.
~By Bill Bixby ~
The old boy network is still very strong and very true. Just look at the stock exchange and how many men and women are there. It is still very much run by men.
~By Billie Jean King ~
We need a data network that can easily carry voice, instead of what we have today, a voice network struggling to carry data.
~By Reed Hundt ~
National Action Network, the group I founded, has affiliates or chapters in over 40 cities around the country.
~By Al Sharpton ~
What is special about VOIP is that it's just another thing you can do on the Internet, whereas it is the only thing - or nearly the only thing with the exception of the dial-up modem and fax - that you can do on the public switched telephone network.
~By Vinton Cerf ~
It was a JOB; the video show was a JOB; you don't tell the Aristocrats joke at 8 o'clock at night on network tv, it would be funny though. But those guys know I like dirty stuff, I like clean stuff too.
~By Bob Saget ~
Inside every working anarchy, there's an Old Boy Network.

~By Albert Wynn ~
Extremely strong, effective, tenacious, and powerful political networks can be built when you fight losing battles as well as when you win.
~By Patricia Ireland ~
Like Afghanistan before it, Iraq is only one theater in a regional war. We were attacked by a network of terrorist organizations supported by several countries, of whom the most important were Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Saudi Arabia.
~By Michael Ledeen ~
The Bush administration works closely with a network of rapid response digital brownshirts who work to pressure reporters and their editors for 'undermining support for our troops.'
~By Al Gore ~
If you just have a single problem to solve, then fine, go ahead and use a neural network. But if you want to do science and understand how to choose architectures, or how to go to a new problem, you have to understand what different architectures can and cannot do.
~By Marvin Minsky ~
Sometimes a serendipitous reaction occurs when a network asks you if you have any ideas for a series, at a time when your creative flow is working in that direction.
~By Joe Murray ~
Parents should watch what their children watch and not use TV as a babysitter. If a show is objectionable they should turn it OFF. They should write the president of the network and tell him they are never going to watch that program again and why.
~By Bill Bixby ~
We are offering to the American public a line of delicious Italian-American foods. They will be available through the Internet, shopping networks and national store distribution.

~By Vernor Vinge ~
As far as Zarqawi is concerned, there is a network of extremists; it's not just Zarqawi.
~By John Abizaid ~
People like me have to have the discipline only to work for clients, corporations, political people, products, services, networks that we believe in and we want to see succeed.
~By Frank Luntz ~
I actually think there's a potential, a crazy potential, that network TV could become something valuable and worthwhile, just because of fear on the part of the networks.
~By Bob Odenkirk ~
The agendas on the management side of the table now are not in sync like they used to be because you have vastly different entities supplying programming to networks.
~By Dick Wolf ~
I have two syndicated radio shows though United Stations Radio Network.
~By Nina Blackwood ~
The Internet is not just one thing, it's a collection of things - of numerous communications networks that all speak the same digital language.
~By Jim Clark ~
I consider Bush's decision to call for a war against terrorism a serious mistake. He is elevating these criminals to the status of war enemies, and one cannot lead a war against a network if the term war is to retain any definite meaning.
~By Jurgen Habermas ~
When you listen to Christian radio stations - and there are thousands of them now in the United States - and when you listen to Christian television networks - and there are thousands of Christian television shows across the country - they are all politically right.
~By Tony Campolo ~
Information networks straddle the world. Nothing remains concealed. But the sheer volume of information dissolves the information. We are unable to take it all in.
~By Gunther Grass ~
So, we come out to Los Angeles. And we met with every network. We met with show runners, directors, writers, everything. And what we had an idea for, they didn't like. And what they had an idea for, we didn't like. So, we went home.
~By Reba McEntire ~
In my opinion FOX is known for being a network that just advertises, and that's pretty much how they get their viewers.
~By Alia Shawkat ~
I don't think the news department will have to lie down and play dead like it has in the past. By and large the network has been understanding, but then so have I.
~By Roone Arledge ~
Don't overstate Fox News. It's still much smaller than the least of the network niches.
~By Tom Brokaw ~
I believe strongly in writing groups such as Romance Writers Of America that offer support, information and networking.
~By Nora Roberts ~
We're not going to dumb down for them. They have to move up. They're the network and we're the show.
~By Alia Shawkat ~
Mr. Darwin contributes some striking and ingenious instances of the way in which the principle partially affects the chain, or rather network of life, even to the total obliteration of certain meshes.
~By Richard Owen ~
According to the committee's findings, a network of mobile missiles carrying the newest warheads could be tested by China this year and deployed as early as 2002.
~By Charles Foster Bass ~
As a performer you are being used to keep people watching so the commercial endorsements that support the network can be seen by as many people as possible.

Anyone can use these sites - companies and colleges, teachers and students, young and old all make use of networking sites to connect with people electronically to share pictures, information, course work, and common interests.

~By Sharon Gless ~
Over and over again-in the movie, I have nine different people who have worked for Fox News network who have come forward and talked on camera, three of them anonymously, by the way.
~By Robert Greenwald ~
You know, there are not only - all of the networks, and I mean every television news operation and print and radio and magazines, newspapers, all of them, are remiss in the diversity area. I mean, none of these organizations have reached a level of parity.
~By Connie Chung ~
I wouldn't totally rule out doing Letterman or the Tonight Show if I had a set that I just happened to write that I thought was funny but was still appropriate for network censors. But I'm not going to go out of my way.
~By Joe Rogan ~
Basicly what I had to do was do a 7 minute board and pitch it to a room of big wigs from the network and based on that they determined if I would get a short or not.
~By Craig McCracken ~
Everybody gets everything handed to them. The rich inherit it. I don't mean just inheritance of money. I mean what people take for granted among the middle and upper classes, which is nepotism, the old-boy network.
~By Toni Morrison ~
The support that we have from the network in terms of watching us at an unusual time in the year and playing our episodes three times in a given week until we built an audience... is exceptional.
~By Josh Schwartz ~
The American soldier is quick in adapting himself to a new mode of living. Outfits which have been here only three days have dug vast networks of ditches three feet deep in the bare brown earth. They have rigged up a light here and there with a storage battery.
~By Ernie Pyle ~
With network shows, writers can be so protective of every syllable.
~By Michael Shanks ~
We know the threats - from global terrorist networks to the spread of deadly weapons. Yet we also know that embedded in this time of danger is the promise of a new day, if we have the courage and commitment to work together.
~By Valerie Jarrett ~
I won't eat anything that has intelligent life, but I'd gladly eat a network executive or a politician.
~By Marty Feldman ~
They're pretty particular about what they show. They certainly edit the scripts and have conversations with the writers about what they are and aren't willing to portray. But the writers and the network are pretty much on the same page.
~By James Denton ~
For a man who purports to have learned of media ethics only this month, Mr. Williams has spent an undue amount of time appearing as a media ethicist on both CNN and the cable news networks of NBC.
~By Frank Rich ~
Businesses who are members of Businesses for Social Responsibility or the Social Venture Network are internalizing costs on a voluntary basis and therefore raising their costs of doing business, but their competitors are not required to.
~By Paul Hawken ~
I remember when I did the pilot, and I though no network is going to want to do this. How could that happen? A half Chinese guy walking the old west that doesn't fire one gun and never gets on a horse?
~By David Carradine ~
Anthology shows as a whole scare people. The networks can't quite get their heads around it.
~By Todd McFarlane ~
I don't think I could ever do a network sitcom because the humor is often based on some trite circumstance. I don't want to be a part of a show where it's mostly about coming up with the jokes.
~By Sherilyn Fenn ~
Hulu is about the shows, not the networks. The shows are the brands that users care about.
~By Jason Kilar ~
Independent media can go to where the silence is and break the sound barrier, doing what the corporate networks refuse to do.
~By Amy Goodman ~
The blame for the 9/11 attacks lays squarely and exclusively with the Al-Qaeda network.
~By Kay Granger ~
They seem to have forgotten that, and are back saying the only purpose of P2P networks is for illegal trading of owned goods. We claim part of the reason for P2P is for legal trading of what ought to be in public domain. And what is in public domain in many cases.
~By John Perry Barlow ~
He thinks he can use the jail for networking to be somebody. In that way, he's always operating.
~By John Leguizamo ~
You have this enormous network and no one knows what's out there.
~By Dan Farmer ~
Most shows, you really have to force it. And everybody's nervous, and the network is nervous, and they've all got their notepads out, and they're all going to give notes on what they think is funny, and everybody's trying to spin their jokes, and this was so - the script was so good that we didn't have to really do anything, and it made it so easy for us to do well.
~By Will Arnett ~
The heart and soul of network programming is series programming, the weekly repetition of characters you like having in your house.
~By Dick Wolf ~
A show that no one thought had a chance has just finished its fifth year: Charmed. I think it's tougher for the younger networks, so I think they have a little more patience for the sake of the show. But who knows?
~By Aaron Spelling ~
In the earliest days, this was a project I worked on with great passion because I wanted to solve the Defense Department's problem: it did not want proprietary networking and it didn't want to be confined to a single network technology.
~By Vinton Cerf ~
Politics aside, it will be hard for any new liberal radio network to outdo the professionalism of NPR.
~By Paul Weyrich ~
The alliance with air Berlin is attractive for me. I can use the whole sales network of the air Berlin and 24 percent of my own airline at air Berlin sold.
~By Niki Lauda ~
But despite the universality of URLs, we often forget that they're not just a handy way to address network resources. They're also valuable communication tools.
~By Jesse James Garrett ~
People essentially like local news better than network news.
~By Roone Arledge ~
Networks don't want a show with a continuing story. There's no backend potential.
~By William Devane ~
Outside of the mindless sitcoms that the networks thrive on, people able to think generally consider most entertainment is escape in one form or another.
~By Gary Gygax ~
Parents need all the help they can get. The strongest as well as the most fragile family requires a vital network of social supports.
~By Bernice Weissbourd ~
As president of the United States, my top priority will be to keep America safe. We're going to go after the terrorist networks. We're going to go after Osama bin Laden. We are not going to live in fear in this country.
~By Wesley Clark ~
I don't think that Yahoo or any other Internet company should try to become a television network. We will be nowhere if we have to create our own content.
~By Terry Semel ~
My goal was to be a network correspondent by the time I was 30.
~By Jessica Savitch ~
I really wish there was some big brother conspiracy theory. I just think it's the ignorance of trying to make a dollar. That's what the networks have done and will continue to do. If anyone doesn't think that this is about making money, then they're crazy.
~By Montel Williams ~
The cyberspace earnings I get from Linux come in the format of having a Network of people that know me and trust me, and that I can depend on in return.
~By Linus Torvalds ~
A brain is a society of very small, simple modules that cannot be said to be thinking, that are not smart in themselves. But when you have a network of them together, out of that arises a kind of smartness.
~By Kevin Kelly ~
The Iraq War marked the beginning of the end of network news coverage. Viewers saw the juxtaposition of the embedded correspondents reporting the war as it was actually unfolding and the jaundiced, biased, negative coverage of these same events in the network newsrooms.
~By Dick Morris ~
There's fierce competition between all the networks to get the guest who can bring the most pertinent information about whatever the story of the moment happens to be.
~By Bob Schieffer ~
If I went in to pitch this show to a network, I would be laughed out of the room.
~By Pat Sajak ~
People tend to work in teams, in a collaborative way, in an informal network. If you create an environment like that, it's much more effective and much more efficient.
~By Jim Mitchell ~
We accelerated our capital spending in the fourth quarter, particularly in international and next-generation network deployment, which should not only sustain future revenue growth but also drive significant cost reductions across all communications services.
~By Bernard Ebbers ~
At this point, I can't say what network would be picking it up, but I know that it would be a success.
