Limited Hangout

A propaganda technique of displaying a subset of the available information. It misdirects an incautious audience, because information needs a context for correct interpretation. Subtly omitting information changes the interpretation of the surrounding information. Th commercially-controlled media is a form of limited hangout, although since they also modify information, Modified limited hangout may be a more appropriate term. It is the deliberate revelation of some information to try to confuse and/or prevent discovery of other information. A modified limited hangout goes further, by slightly changing the information disclosed.1
