Public Opinion is Walter Lippmann's groundbreaking work which demonstrates how individual beliefs are swayed by stereotypes, the mass media, and political propaganda.

The book opens with the notion that democracy in the age of super fast communications is obsolete. He analyses the impact of several phenomena, such as the radio and newspapers, to support his criticisms of the sociopolitical situation as it stands. He famously coins the term 'manufactured consent', for the fomenting of views which ultimately work against the interests of those who hold them.

Lippmann contends that owing to the masses of information flung at the population on a daily basis, opinions regarding entire groups in society are being reduced to simple stereotypes. The actual complexity and nuance of life, Lippmann contends, is undermined by the ever-faster modes of communication appearing regularly. News by nature presents or emphasizes only some of the facts.

I bought these to provide a snug fit for an EV charging cable running through my garage wall. They worked perfectly to keep out drafts and crawly things. Highly recommended.

Worth the money!
Size: 50mm/2inch, Color: Black, Number of Items: 2
This kit is great. I bought this because I know that the seller paired the cutting tool to be the perfect size and it was! Not just that, but the hole cutter was well done and cut thru the 3 layers - laminate, plywood and particle board with ease. The only thing that I would do different, is go to 3" next time. 2" was very tight when running the 2 @ 120 volt cord ends through the cap.

Nice Floating Shelves

I wasn't sure how to fill this space between my kitchen cabinets, and I think these shelves turned out looking great and fit the space nicely. They were easy to install, good quality, and could handle a decent amount of weight.
