The daily press, the immediate media, is superb at synecdoche, at giving us a small thing that stands for a much larger thing. Reporters on the ground, embedded or otherwise, can tell us about or send us pictures of what happened in that place at that time among those people.

  • -- Bruce Jackson 布鲁斯·杰克逊

每日的媒体,即时的媒体,擅长于提喻,擅长于给我们一个代表更大事物的小事物。地面上的记者,不管是嵌入式的还是其他的,都可以告诉我们或者给我们发送当时在那个地方发生的那些人的照片。
