The thing is that because of the media there is actually no possibility of a proper debate and discussion. Eventually there will have to be a dialogue, just as with the IRA and The Taliban, but those that suggest it are ridiculed. It's a sad society that stifles proper debate and leaves deals to be done in secret instead because of fear of the media coverage.

I think that's exactly right. It also severely damages any chance of sensible debate anywhere else. Today's instant news delivery keeps us on the desired message. Although the comparison is now hackneyed 1984 was a pretty accurate.
