The Drew Pearson Readership Belief:
The belief that the workings of a free and unfettered market capitalist press, along with later judicially and legislatively added powers of inquiry into the workings of government in the sunshine, can cause you to progress spiritually, politically, intellectually, morally, and informationally, where you, as a society in general, want and need to go.
This belief is not true.
That is why I have called it The Drew Pearson Fallacy, after the great muckraker.
