Ignorance of History

If the following is true (admittedly, the statistics presented are without source), then this is an example about why the process of fascism continues unimpeded in the "Land of the Free".
Without books, there is no accounting for history, and without history, nobody knows where society has journeyed in political heights and lows, and the people cannot know where it is heading...

A free press ensures a free society...

"There is no such thing, at this date of the world's history... in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it.
The business of the Journalist is to destroy truth; to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press?
We are the tools and vassals for rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes." ~ John Swinton, former Chief of Staff, The New York Times, 1953
