About this listen

 Some lies try hard to fool you. Others just make it easy for you to believe them. That’s the danger of cognitive fluency: the simpler something feels, the more likely we are to think it’s true. In the latest issue of Deceptive Minds, I explore: Why fake documents with grainy photos often seem more real than verified ones How anti-intellectualism and slogan-based disinfo campaigns thrive on fluency bias And what makes even seasoned professionals fall for staged “leaks,” forged letters, and photo ops 💡 The truth can feel complex and overwhelming. But, the best deceptions...are frictionless. Want to check out the print version? You can ⁠⁠get here as a LinkedIn newslette⁠r⁠.
