Maybe I come into the sad well informed category whereby I search for various commentary.

Sadly, very few people fall into that "well informed" category in this age of social media and easy click-bait headlines when people just can't be arsed to find out the truth for themselves and just absorb media sound bites that promote a particular agenda.  Shame we can't deny the ill informed majority the vote.

My daughter's Final Year Dissertation is the use of propaganda to control a population.  She is postulating that Chomsky is right in thinking it works entirely on feeding the severely hard of thinking and lazy with easy to digest 'information' to persuade them no further investigation is necessary (he doesn't include the lazy).

I know quite a few non rugby soccer supporters- mainly Swansea fans- who knew that Coventry were a basket case, and that SISU had walked out to try and get the ground cheap.
