An instrumental work on today’s outlook on the dominance of media in democracy, Public Opinion, is a key work by author Walter Lippmann.

Public Opinion is a highly recommended work for those who are interested in understanding the role of media and public opinion in politics and also those who enjoy the writings of Walter Lippmann.
