Reads like an essay, purely subjective. No evidence of notability. Does not seem to be a term used widely by the press. Dmol (talk) 10:40, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

  • Delete reads like a non-academic essay of opinion. The sources only marginally discuss the ideas in the article. Neither verifiable nor encyclopedic. —Ed!(talk) 03:59, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

  • Delete This is an essay. I am sure there are already some articles on the topic of opinion shaping. BigJim707 (talk) 06:20, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

:Public relations might be the closest match. BigJim707 (talk) 06:22, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

  • Merge. Although clearly an essay, and it needs better sources, there are valid points here about an objectively real phenomenon in public relations. The best term for this phenomenon is opinion formation and I'm a bit surprised to find no article there. The closest thing I find is [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_opinion#Formation_of_public_opinion here], and I suggest a merge/redirect maybe with a 'more sources' tag. --Lockley (talk) 00:39, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

  • delete It's an essay about bad press behavior, all of which I am sure is covered elsewhere and under a more encyclopedic title. Mangoe (talk) 13:37, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:NOTESSAY, WP:NOTBLOG, WP:SOAP, and WP:OR. We don't provide space for essay-writing contests, blogs, or opinion pieces. Nor do we publish original thought, which this appears to be. Bearian (talk) 17:38, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
