The book explores Walter Lippmann's insights on the emerging role of mass media during his time, particularly through newspapers. He observed how nations manipulated media for their agendas during World War I and argued for the potential of mass media to foster peace, provided it was managed by knowledgeable and impartial experts. Lippmann's vision highlights the dual nature of media as both a tool for manipulation and a means for achieving global harmony.
