Quotes from Noam Chomsky (cited by Caitlin Johnstone):
“Any dictator would admire the uniformity and obedience of the U.S. media.”
“The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum — even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there’s free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate.”
“Propaganda is to a democracy what the bludgeon is to a totalitarian state.”
