	Walter Lippmann and the Phantom Public by Stephen Bender
		Lippmann would decisively win the debate he and Dewey carried on during the 1920s, backed as he was by the inexorable growth of the public relations industry and a firmly ensconced elite consensus which alternatively held in contempt and feared the "intrusion of the public" into the affairs of the "responsible men."
		Lippmann's work debunks the fairy tale that Americans are spoon fed, giving the reader an unvarnished account of the elite's contempt for democracy.
		[Lippmann himself, interestingly, was a critic of Vietnam well before the Tet Offensive.] With a disastrous war upon us and whispers of economic crisis aloft, the phantom may yet rise to again haunt the ghastly keepers of Lippmann's flame.

		The value of Walter Lippmann--apart from his staying-power--has been his immunity to intellectual and political fashions, particularly to those of the 1930s.
		Even the New Deal struck Lippmann as a dangerous centralization of power, and his skepticism about President Roosevelt--'a pleasant man who, without any important qualifications for the office, would very much like to be President'--seemed so uncommonly perverse, in the midst of the general adulation, that historians are still apologizing for it.
