The Politician Is Trained In The Art

Speaking Of Sir Winston Churchill: He Mobilized The English Language And Sent It Into Battle.

We Must Not Confuse Dissent With Disloyalty. When The Loyal Opposition Dies, I Think The Soul Of America Dies With It.

People Say Conversation Is A Lost Art; How Often I Have Wished It Were.

I Have Said, And I Believe, That Potentially We Have In This Country A Free Enterprise System Of Radio And Television Which Is Superior To Any Other. But To Achieve Its Promise, It Must Be Both Free And Enterprising. There Is No Suggestion Here That Networks Or Individual Stations Should Operate As Philanthropies. But I Can Find Nothing In The Bill Of Rights Or In The Communications Act Which Says That They Must Increase Their Net Profits Each Year, Lest The Republic Collapse.

We Have Currently A Built-in Allergy To Unpleasant Or Disturbing Information. Our Mass Media Reflect This. But Unless We Get Up Off Our Fat Surpluses And Recognize That Television In The Main Is Being Used To Distract, Delude, Amuse, And Insulate Us, Then Television And Those Who Finance It, Those Who Look At It, And Those Who Work At It, May See A Totally Different Picture Too Late.
