What does Thomas Jefferson's commentary suggest about the role of the media in a democratic political system?
Thomas Jefferson once famously remarked, "If it were left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter."
A well informed public is the strength of democracy.
=
A self-governing society, by definition, needs to make its own decisions. It cannot do that without hard information, leavened with an open exchange of views. Abraham Lincoln articulated this concept most succinctly when he said: "Let the people know the facts, and the country will be safe."
