Block quotes

Here is an example of creating a block quotation with the WISIWIG editor. I got this quote from a paper that was in my Zotero collection. I copied a section of the text and placed it in the post and then used the cite function to place the citation inside the quote and the bibliographic function to make the reference list entry. This is not exactly APA format because the Blogger editor doesn't easily lend itself to that style. Still the main APA organizational principles are evident.

 In the first decade and a half of the 21st century, audiences, in addition to changing their preferences and consumption habits, have also become active. Citizens are not satisfied with passively consuming news, and pursue greater participation, both outside and through the media. In some cases, this implies, at least potentially, becoming involved in all the phases of the production process. As was pointed out at the beginning, following Thompson (THOMPSON, 1988), audiences are breaking with the symbolic power of the media, which is now shifting to the active audience. (Masip, Guallar, Peralta, Ruiz, & Suau, 2015)
