Susceptible

“People in a mass-information society are strangely susceptible. They believe what they read in the papers and then believe that what they have read is their own conclusions. In this manner public support can be generated (at least for a while) in favor of administration policies that are palpably wrong. The 1991 attack on Iraq by Bush the elder’s administration is a case in point.”
