people become very sophisticated in creating stories about reality that are unquestioned. and in the case of weapons of mass destruction, it was a literal conspiracy by people acting in concert with media professionals like judith miller. in the case of austerity, you have a billionaire like pete peterson setting up foundations and having people write op-eds and all the rest. so what we see as a result of the decline of this sort of civic minded journalism that i think with profound exceptions, henry luce represented i think nobly is something in which the interests have taken over from the public interest. >> michael. >> i guess i'd like to just stay a few words of dissent again. from the idea a little disagreement i guess with alan, also with rick, about the idea that was ever anything lacking in the golden age of journalism, ever a time when there was really an opportunity for a much more balanced reporting and jackson mentioned the muck rakers, too. i think to my mind, golden age journalism is when the press was as popular as it ever was probably which is roughly from

and unquestioning and discussion. there are 600 socrates' cafes operating around the world where people gathered to discuss important philosophical issues.
