“Information is power. Disinformation is abuse of power.”
“Television is altering the meaning of 'being informed' by creating a species of information that might properly be called disinformation. Disinformation does not mean false information. It means misleading information - misplaced, irrelevant, fragmented or superficial information - information that creates the illusion of knowing something, but which in fact leads one away from knowing.”
“I don't believe in information, I believe in disinformation.”
“I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves ; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.”
“Liberty may be endangered by the abuse of liberty, but also by the abuse of power.”
“While information is the oxygen of the modern age, disinformation is the carbon monoxide that can poison generations.”
