Thought you were kidding, no problem.
Here’s another interesting clue from the past:
Edward Bernays, [consultant for] CBS-TV and a friend of H.G. Wells, wrote in his 1928 book Propaganda:
“As civilization becomes more complex, and as the need for invisible government has been increasingly demonstrated, the technical means have been invented and developed by which public opinion may be REGIMENTED. With printing press and newspaper, the telephone, telegraph, radio and airplanes, ideas can be spread rapidly, and even instantaneously, across the whole of America.”
