American Critic

Reed Hundt

The public owns the airwaves; Congress gave them to broadcasters for free, with the understanding that they would serve the public interest while trying to maximize profit. An aspect of serving the public is to use the immense power of electronic media to reflect evolving standards of respect for other people.

Alice Cooper

The late sixties and early seventies were kind of a breeding ground for exciting new sounds because easy listening and folk were kind of taking over the airwaves. I think it was a natural next step to take that blissful, easy-going sound and strangle the life out of it.

American Musician

Mary Chapin Carpenter

American Clergyman

Ralph Macchio

I've come up in the scripted world, and I have wished there were more time slots for us to tell compelling scripted stories and not fill the airwaves with a lot of fluff and tabloid entertainment.

American Actor

Robert McChesney

And understand that scarce spectrum is used today for example for cell phone operators, they have to pay for the airwaves they use, for their services.

Joey Ramone

The Eagles and the Captain and Tennille ruled the airwaves, and we were the answer to it.

John Updike

Without books, we might just melt into the airwaves and be just another set of blips.
