Good news for ....
I've been reading a book by Eric Hoffer, "The True Believer: Thoughts on
the Nature of Mass Movements". Take a look at "Amusing Ourselves to
Death". Look at the French political scene between WWI and WWII.
But... look at "The Wisdom of Crowds" as a counterweight...
Do the 24/7 news channels make anyone aware of the facts surrounding
something, or do we get the tasty sound bites and emotional details?
