Young people show a preference for information from experts over social media influencers, which is initially encouraging. However, this tendency raises concerns about critical thinking and the potential for manipulation. The belief in the truthfulness of news and experts enhances the possibility of brainwashing, suggesting that if the public trusts these sources, they can be easily swayed on various topics. This occurs when questionable experts are paraded in the news, creating a misleading sense of credibility. Therefore, fostering skepticism towards news and expert opinions is crucial to combating manipulation.
