Chimamanda Adichi ("Single story") - ANS-In 2009 the Nigerian writer Chimamanda
Ngozi Adichie gave a fabulous TED talk called "The Danger of a Single Story." It was
about what happens when complex human beings and situations are reduced to a
single narrative: when Africans, for example, are treated solely as pitiable poor, starving
victims with flies on their faces.
Her point was that each individual life contains a heterogeneous compilation of stories.
If you reduce people to one, you're taking away their humanity.

empire that included both RCA and NBC, and became one of the largest companies in

is proportional to the number of viewers.
Edward R. Murrow - ANS-He first came to prominence with a series of radio broadcasts
for the news division of the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS) during World War II,
which were followed by millions of listeners in the United States. During the war he

Boys.
