e intuitively understood that if you simply tell a lie, people who know (or find out) the truth will easily reject it. But if you tell a huge, enormous lie that is blatantly false, and repeat it over and over, people eventually will question their own ability to properly process the information, and they will come to believe it. In fact, as the lie continues to be repeated and reinforced they will believe it with great force -- even when subsequently confronted with indisputable facts to the contrary. And as more people around them believe it, it becomes even more entrenched inside them (and also more difficult to resist the urge to conform).

What’s going to eventually happen is that the media will keep getting caught faking things, like TANG, TNR, etc. but we’ll just get immune to it after awhile. Then they’ll do it more blatantly and not fear getting caught. Problem is there are still about 150 million retards in this country who will STILL believe the MSM even when told that it’s a lie.

What is “common” about this?

They should be losing faith in pretty much everything over there since they seem to be on the fast track to hell.

They did win big on one thing; however, when they shipped Victoria Beckham here to America. Help us all. Another snippy little “I wuv me so much” empty celebrity.

This is a great example of why governments should not run the media. And if they cannot run the media and keep the public’s faith, why should they run the health care.
