WMD discovery managed info just like economic news 1. put out news release with gross favorable assumptions that produces a likeable evidence (econ numbers), which engenders visceral emotions in support of war effect (econ recovery) 2. days later (one month later) retract the info by means of corrections after review (revisions toward reality) the benefit of emotional initial response far outweighs the correction later after careful review and push toward reality later, people will say we found evidence of WMD when we didnt they will recall the initial stories this is how the Soviet Union operated disinformation / jim
