Trust Me, I’m Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator — Attention as Currency

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.

This episode explores Trust Me, I’m Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator by Ryan Holiday as a systems-level analysis of how engagement-based media economics influence behavior, belief, and institutional outcomes.

By focusing on incentive architecture rather than personalities or isolated scandals, the episode shows why misinformation and outrage persist — and how they connect to broader advertising, platform, and political systems.
