Lippmann and Dewey

During class we viewed multiple clips of protestors and discussed the beliefs behind Lippmann and Dewey. I agree with Lippmann's views on politics and the way our society perceives information. I am not involved in politics and therefore do not vote or voice my opinion on the debatable topics relating to politics. The majority of our society complain about certain aspects of the government and the million things they supposedly do wrong but it is not fair to judge and comment on information that I do not know enough about, which is what many people do. I enjoyed watching clips of protestors, Dewey would argue the protestors are correct and support their decision to stand up for their rights and beliefs. Lippmann would not be so quick to help or support protestors although they can be right in many situations.
