Anyone here know what is meant by "the informed public"?

**************
Those “educated” citizens who posess some dubious college degrees?
The “informed public” are those who agree with the author. The rest are deplorables or something.
“Informed public” = those that took the blue pill.
In the author's mind the readers of the New York Times.
Did a quick search. Found...

For, when we say we desire informed public opinion, one of the best ways of bringing that about is by encouraging well-trained minds on any subject relevant to a public policy question of general concern to help their fellow-citizens by throwing a bright light on the subject.
Not surprisingly CNBC tries to twist the article and put the onus on corporate management to “lead the change” rather than holding government and media accountable for the rise in societal distrust and malaise.
well-trained minds
****************
Translation: Well indoctrinated minds that have a liberal world view. ;)
“There is a growing feeling of distrust in government and the media among the general population.”
Yeah, it’s just a “feeling”. Surprised they didn’t throw “perceived” or “potential” in there. Once something like that is declared, one instinctively knows any further statements never mind any conclusions, will be 100% Grade A horseshit.
Let me guess. “We need to do a better job getting our message out”, and we’re just sadly misinformed hick rubes out here in flyover JesusLand? Amirite?
I am going to guess “the informed public “ means college educated. That probably means progressives. And, yes, reports from France say the yellow vest uprising is on both sides of the political spectrum. If true it spells real trouble for globalists like Macron.
This is news?
“Right Think”
“The informed public are those who agree with the author. The rest are deplorables or something.
Excellent answer and the same definitions/stats apply in America.
Instead of wearing Yellow Vests, we are the Deploreables.
Surprised they didnt throw perceived or potential in there.

Or ‘unexpected’. They like that term, especially when good economic news comes out.
Some idiots are trying to make a Yellow Vest group in NYC. They planned a big protest at the Fed and four people showed up. Their messaging includes less government, but also free healthcare and education. They don’t even see how stupid that is.
Je suis gilet jaune !
I hope someone starts manufacturing little “yellow vest” pins soon, many Americans would wear them in support!

I would wear one on my various Navy Hats.
Instead of yellow jackets, I think hunter orange would be better here. Lots of people already have such gear, and it would be more meaningful to many people.
