I just cracked open Darwin's Children by Greg Bear. One of the cool things he does is to "create" the media around the stories he tells. This passage (from a fake internet posting) caught my eye in particular.
"America's a cruel country. There's a whole lot of people would just as soon stomp you like an ant. Listen to talk radio. Plenty of dummies, damned few ventriloquists."
