Walter Lippmann
Walter Lippmann (1889–1974) was a prominent American writer, journalist, and political commentator, known for shaping public opinion and modern political thought. He co-founded "The New Republic" and later became a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist for "The New York Herald Tribune".

His ideas on democracy, media, and political philosophy have had a lasting impact on both journalism and political theory.
