  4. Alexander Solzhenitsyn on The Press …
    The Press as Elitist Herd Beasts
    I have always said that the assumption of a moral and intellectual high ground was a lie invented by leftist academics and propagated by the press/media.

    Solzhenitsyn demonstrates the nature of the beast and explains how and why it is a living lie.

    “He seemed the kind of guy you might like to have a beer with, without feeling your pockets might be picked, your trove of principles rummaged for usable political fodder.”
