“Convenient mythologies require neither evidence nor logic.”
Edward S. Herman, Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media

“Concentrate on the victims of enemy powers and forget about the victims of friends.”
Edward S. Herman, Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media

“Advertisers will want, more generally, to avoid programs with serious complexities and disturbing controversies that interfere with the "buying mood." They seek programs that will lightly entertain and thus fit in with the spirit of the primary purpose of program purchases—the dissemination of a selling message.”
Edward S. Herman, Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media
