“You know, a left-winger, the barrier to success if you're on the left in commercial radio is a mile and a half higher than it is if you're on the right.”

“The commercial broadcasters have tremendous influence in Washington, D.C., for a couple of reasons. First, they're extremely rich and they have lots of money and they have had for a long time, so they can give money to politicians, which gets their attention.”

“One survey that I saw that was published I think in Variety or Electronic Media within the last three weeks says that now the average hour of radio in the United States has 18 minutes of commercials.”

“We once played Strathclyde University's student union where they had a crash barrier in front of the stage. I thought that was a little over the top until the gig started and there was this crush at the front. They were even throwing beer bottles - it was wild. You'd have thought we were a rock group instead of a barbershop quartet.”

“There is increasing recognition that violence against women is a major barrier to the fulfilment of human rights and a direct challenge to women's inclusion and participation in sustainable development and sustaining peace.”
