INFLUENCE PLAY #1: FILTERING
"Information can be segregated, some withheld or deemphasized, some conveyed or underscored. A rival’s rhetoric can’t be stopped or diverted, but it can be edited and reorganized." http://www.playmakersystems.com"> http://www.playmakersystems.com

INFLUENCE PLAY #3: PAUSE
How does a propagandist respond when asked an INCONVENIENT QUESTION?

INFLUENCE PLAY #4: TEST
Sometimes, before you make a risky move, you have to TEST an idea to see how it will play with your audience.
You float an idea. A "trial balloon".
If it doesn& #39;t test well, you forget about it.

Be aware of the DECOY technique.
If there is a CREDIBLE narrative to be destroyed, you PLANT a SIMILAR fake story in the news media.
Once people buy into the fake story you reveal evidence that it was FAKE NEWS to discredit BOTH narratives.
"Firehose of lies"
