"In Mencken's words, nobody went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public."
Scoop's note: Mencken never said or wrote this. He actually wrote the following in the Chicago Sunday Tribune, Sept 19, 1926:
“No one in this world, so far as I know — and I have searched the records for years, and employed agents to help me — has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. Nor has anyone ever lost public office thereby."
