Praise for Media Rules!
"Brian Reich and Dan Solomon have ground the lens that so many of us have been waiting for: a way to view and profit from the infusion of new communication media into our personal and professional lives. Comprehensive, yet eminently readable, I came away from reading Media Rules! feeling as though the fog on a highway had just lifted and I could resume driving at top speed."
--Martin Kace, founder and President, EMPAX, and former CEO of Joe Boxer and Phat Fashions/Phat Farm
"The means of mass communication have always been owned by or controlled by governments or corporations. But that's not true anymore. Now, there is a new reality created by a horrible...beautiful accident. The smashup occurred at the intersection of digital technology and the Internet, and at the moment of impact, the means of mass communication fell out of the hands of the media elite and fell into the hands of, potentially, every person on the planet. Now, people can tell their own stories. This book helps you understand how."
--Stephen Cassidy, Chief, Internet, Television, Radio and Image, UNICEF
"Everyone who consumes, creates, and cares about the messages that infuse our lives should read Media Rules! Reich and Solomon put the 'me' in media, and the 'media' in immediate. This stuff matters to us all, and it matters now. Read these Rules, and the authors will inspire you to join the conversation, syndicate your own knowledge, and work with a set of rules we all are shaping, every day."
--Tucker Eskew, Founding Partner, ViaNovo, and former deputy assistant to the president and director of the White House Office of Global Communications
