i had a hard time understanding the reading in public opinion...but one quote that did stand out to me was on page 24 "Privacy is insisted upon at all kinds of places in the area of what is called public affairs. It is often very illuminating, therefore, to ask yourself how you got at the facts on which you base your opinion. Who actually saw, heard, felt, counted, named the thing, about which you have an opinion?"
this kind of stood out to me because most people in the public eye try to keep some sort of privacy but anytime something gets out it is such a big deal...such as someone getting divorced, cheating on their loved one, having a baby, or blah blah...and then everyone has some type of opinion about what has happened....the thing that is intersting though is that you only have to hear this one time from pretty much any type of source a tv, magazine, internet and everyone seemes to believe it...but if you think about hearing what you believe so quickly should you really? i mean if you heard the same thing you are believing that quickly about your best friend...would you believe it or would you have to actually hear it from them to believe it? or from some type of trusted source....not just some dumb magazine...
