Given your lines of question here, particularly the Fox News example, I would look further into behavioral priming. https://www.wilsonquarterly.com/quarterly/the-american-quest-for-redemption/does-hearing-words-like-wrinkles-cause-you-walk-slowly/ And then consider the effect that such propaganda broadcasts have in shaping the impulses, thoughts, and actions of the receivers (be they primary consumers of Fox News or people who catch a ricochet walking through some office waiting room). Tucker says it, someone here boosts it, and now we're all subtly influenced by their behavioral priming. e: better examples https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/ar...ence%20(e.g.%2C https://www.researchgate.net/publication/221779554_Behavioral_Priming_It%27s_All_in_the_Mind_but_Whose_Mind

fool of sound posted:Correct information is an inherent good regardless of which filters it has been run through by the time it gets to the recipient. What exactly makes correct information an inherent good? Best I can come up with is it can allow one to come to more accurate solutions and take more effective actions, but strictly speaking you don’t need correct information for that... you just need the set of information that would lead to the most apt response... What makes it ‘inherently’ good?

Strange to think CNN had any integrity going into this…

Professor Beetus posted:I don't think it's a meaningful distinction in this particular case just because a fancy news org did it in a more subtle way. If anything, it's worse than the poo poo you mentioned because many more people were willing to take it at face value, including likely many people on this site who think of themselves as very smart and good at media literacy.
