Conformation
(Extracted from http://wiki.mindcloud.org/wiki/Conformation ;-D)
Information that has been robbed of its meaning and twisted in order to create conformatrons. The conformation cycle is a positive feedback loop: audiences grow as conformatrons spread the word, which in turn creates more conformatrons.
The commercial news services and their sister "current events" programs are good sources of conformation. Consequently these shows have some of the largest TV audiences in Australia.
