Michel Lacombe

"La révolte contre la mort est quelque chose d'absurde. Mais on a besoin de toi. T'es de ceux qui donnent un sens à notre nouvelle société québécoise. Certains disent que le XXIe siècle n'est pas commencé. Ils n'ont pas pensé à toi."

Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle

"There's issues of ownership over the human body that bring up issues of colonialism that haven't been resolved. Ultimately, I'm interested not in that we're going to be creating new worlds that we don't understand or have laws for, but that we should slow down the rhetoric and (recognize) that we have not solved old problems. If we don't solve issues of race now, who's to say that hair and skin color don't matter, who's to say something else won't matter?" see also : geneart and The Connection : Intellectual Property on the Internet and in Bio-Technology.

Pew Research Center survey on journalistic self-censorship

"There is general agreement about the extent of the self-censorship and its principal causes. Market pressures -- manifested when newsworthy stories are avoided because they are too boring or complicated -- are seen as the most common factor. Majorities in the print and broadcast media acknowledge that newsworthy stories are often or sometimes avoided because of their complexity or lack of audience appeal."
