- ... salvation and baptism experience. It is because of these practices the ICC is banned on over forty-five college campuses including Oxford, Berkeley, M.I.T., Yale, Harvard, and Duke.

- 1615: Canadian Music Artists and Their Impact
- ... From Canada?!!!" Nothing seemed to discourage, Maestro, not even the fact that Canadian radio has grown more conservative over the years. Maestro is a prime example of an artist who has been overlooked by a business that has been geared towards recognizing artists from L.A or New York.

- ... the content of the happenings is not known until after the concert has occurred (Zucchino 3). Placing "questionable" albums behind the counter or wrapping them in a plain brown package would jeopardize a retailer's business, therefore they refuse to do that (Zucchino 3).

Stanley Gortikov, president of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), claims he has never heard of or heard an example of these "hidden backwards messages" in all of his twenty- five years in the business (Zucchino 3).

- 1618: Is The Mainstream Videogames Media Biased?
- ... Now let's move onto the issue of news coverage. My favorite recent example of this comes from the recent mistranslation of the Okawa conference where Sega was reported to be leaving the console hardware business. EGM's site in particular was quick to report this and slow to admit their mistake. Even more appalling was that their admission was more like a classified ad than an article.
