Ah, you fool, it's the educated reader who can be gulled. All of our difficulty comes with the others. When did you meet a workman who believes the papers? He takes it for granted that they're all propaganda and skips the leading articles … He is our problem. We have to recondition him. But the educated public, who read the highbrow weeklies, don't need reconditioning. They're all right already. They'll believe anything.
— C.S. Lewis, That Hideous Strength
