The anti-intellectual presidency: the decline of presidential rhetoric from George Washington to George W. Bush
Lim, Elvin T.
Lim interviews more than 40 presidential speechwriters to investigate the decline in our presidents' abilities to communicate with the people. He argues that the substance of presidential messages has been sacrificed for the style in which the messages are delivered. In a world of 24-hour media outlets and the necessity to fill the airwaves with content, sound bites and spin have dominated the news. There is little surprise, then, that presidential messages have become increasingly devoid of substance.
