The press is so powerful in its image-making role, it can make the criminal look like hes a the victim and make the victim look like hes the criminal. This is the press, an irresponsible press. It will make the criminal look like hes the victim and make the victim look like hes the criminal. If you arent careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing. If you arent careful, because Ive seen some of you caught in that bag, you run away hating yourself and loving the man — while youre catching hell from the man. You let the man maneuver you into thinking that its wrong to fight him when hes fighting you. Hes fighting you in the morning, fighting you in the noon, fighting you at night and fighting you all in between, and you still think its wrong to fight him back. Why? The press. The newspapers make you look wrong --Malcolm X
