My definition of media? 'Anything which owns attention.' This could be a game or, perhaps, a platform.

Lawyers, before any other group, must continue to point out how the system is really working-how it actually affects real people. They must constantly demonstrate to courts and legislatures alike the tragic results of legal nonintervention. They must highlight how legal doctrines no longer bear any relation to reality, whether in landlord and tenant law, holder in due course law, or any other law. In sum, lawyers must bring real morality into the legal consciousness

There are no winners in this election 2016. I paid attention to it for about two months and then it just started to depress me. At least Hillary's Clinton a politician, but the fact that you've got a guy from a reality TV show!

Michael Eric Dyson

In the 40 years I've been working as an economist and investor, I have never seen such a disconnect between the asset market and the economic reality...

Marc Faber
