propaganda

The spreading of ideas, information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person. The information doesn’t have to be false. It is falsely believed that education creates immunity to propaganda; a rational, skeptical outlook.
In fact, it does just the reverse. It creates in us a disposition to settle for fancy words and high-sounding slogans instead of results, which means that the educated are often more susceptible to propaganda than the common man.
There is often propaganda on network news station claiming that man-made global warming is a fact.
