Public opinion people's perceptions are manipulated

Payola

I ask a lot of questions, partly because I’m naturally curious and partly because I’m skeptical. I agree with Seth’s opinion that people's perceptions are easily manipulated, and rarely do people draw their own conclusions. Too often we succumb to the herd mentality and go along with what we hear others say. Success doesn’t always go to the most skilled, but perhaps to the most lucky, or most adept at playing the game.
