Weinstein's Smear Campaign

There is a specific deception technique Weinstein uses in his smear campaign of his accusers. If you look at his smears in the article below notice he compliments them before or as he says they are lying. This creates the illusion that Weinstein likes his accusers and is a nice guy therefore we should trust his other comments about them. When we hear good comments mixed with bad the cognitive dissonance created in the message, especially without nonverbal cues to check for honesty, tends to make our brains believe the smear. Freaky, but true. If we could hear and watch him, we might detect his smarminess. No, we can read it too.
