Broad on "Zombie Journalism"

From p. 245-246 of Broad, C.D. (1918) “Body and Mind” The Monist 28:2 pp.234-258

“The LNW Railway was ultimately built entirely by the bodily movements of human beings, and the trains run at stated times from the same causes. If these bodily movements were to take place just the same apart from minds we should have to believe that, although there had never been the faintest glimmer of intelligence on the earth, the LNW Railway would still have been built and that trains would still run into and out of Euston driven by mindless engine drivers and containing mindless passengers reading newspapers printed by mindless printers. Now it really seems incredible that all these things should go on as before if there had been no minds; we should surely expect to find an immense and noticeable difference in everything (except possibly the newspapers).”
