Walter Lippmann

Media, 1889-1974

Walter Lippmann was an influential author who wrote for newspapers, magazines, and political speakers.

At first, he was optimistic about American democracy and wanted the people of the United States to be intellectually engaged in world issues. Later, however, he came to the conclusion that the general population was a “great beast” that must be controlled by an intellectual specialist class.

As an author, Lippmann began to see that other writers of his time made large assumptions or generalities about the general public. That led to people producing literature based on biased and fixed ideas.

Lippmann wrote many books, including Cold War, which in 1947 became the common name of the geopolitical struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union.
