It is the spread of the good things that vindicates the whole reason we live our lives in networks.

Nicholas A. Christakis

Don't be deluded into believing that the titular heads of the networks control what appears on their networks. They all have better taste.

Edward R. Murrow

Social networks, professional networks, offices, and schools help keep high earners in place.

Annie Lowrey

I think it's really good that you have great competition among news networks, and for that matter all the networks in general. It's bringing more and more people in to watching the news.

Walter Isaacson

The major networks, the cable networks, they're being prosecutors. They're judges and jurors and executioners. Well, c'mon, that's ridiculous. But they're doing it.
