More From Tariq Ramadan

We all have--to put it as nicely as i can--our lower centres and our higher centres. our lower centres act: they act with terriblepower that sometimes destroys us; but they don't talk.... since the war the lower centres have become vocal. and the effect is that of an earthquake. for they speak truths that have never been spoken before--truths that the makers of our domestic institutions have tried to ignore.

Oil is a tangible commodity, so there is a global market. the fact that we may need less may affect the global price because we're big consumers: we probably take about a quarter of global demand. but if suddenly, let's just use a crazy example, fighting in the middle east led to the closure of the strait of hormuz and no oil could get out through the strait of hormuz, well that would affect china, india, europe, it will affect the whole global economy. it will affect us, too, then.

The news media are, for the most part, the bringers of bad news... and it's not entirely the media's fault, bad news gets higher ratings and sells more papers than good news.

People who travel in china tell me that the mood there is still very upbeat, because their media is different from our media. chinese media emphasize how well things are going and suppress the bad news and publish the good news.

Every story has a point of view and whether it's by what one chooses to include or exclude from a story or whether it's a very specific agenda that is pushed, there is no such thing as objective media. once you realize that it's more than just a marketplace of ideas, it's a battleground of ideas that are suppressed and the ideas that are pushed forward in the mainstream media are the ones that independent media has a chance to address. i think that the democratization of media in that way can be very helpful in allowing the truth to come out in a way that it might not on cnn or fox.
Independent Thinking Chance
The media does not do news. the media is the democrat party hacks assigned to journalism positions. some hacks are consultants. some are candidates. some serve in elective office. some are professors. some are teaching assistants. some run think tanks. others are in the media.

The biggest takeaway for anyone seeking to write is this: don't go looking for the way other authors do their work. you won't find many who are consistent enough to copy, and there are enough variations in approach that it's obvious that it's not like hitting home runs or swinging a golf club. there isn't a standard approach, there's only what works for you (and what doesn't).
