Dateline MSNBC recently aired a very interesting special about how easily most people can be manipulated and controlled. The program details how the use of individual psychological triggers can highly influence our thoughts and actions. The media uses these ploys all the time. It helps to be aware of them, lest you become unknowingly manipulated into believing or buying something based on a “herd mentality.”
The program aptly illustrates the hidden powers of persuasion that can be downright dangerous in the wrong hands.
