lead to public judgments about important matters. Not everyone read
the same newspapers or watched the same newscasts, and not everyone
gave them the same level of attention and interest, but virtually
every citizen was exposed on a regular basis to the news of the day.

informed, instructed, and validated the actions of their government
representatives, elected or otherwise. Absent public judgment, that is
to say when no rough consensus can be reached, important issues
remain unresolved.

parking garage, and turned onto Biscayne Boulevard, heading north
away from The Miami Herald building.
