Bernays

Oh Bernays, how would he manipulate the masses in such a crazed world of information . Fifty years ago information that would take 50 years to obtain ,today ,takes 50 seconds. Information has become a commodity , a direction changer , a necessary tool ,and a destroyer. Today let's take a minute to think of how information rules our lives.





In almost every act of our lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons [...] who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires that control the public mind, who harness old social forces and contrive new ways to bind and guide the world.
