Initial Framing Creates Delayed Consequences Across Narratives

Political rhetoric and initial media framing create durable narratives that official reviews and later evidence struggle to dislodge, impacting public perception, market dynamics, and trust. This phenomenon, seen in incidents involving political figures, corporate leadership, and even disease progression, demonstrates how immediate communication strategies generate delayed, often hidden, consequences. Understanding this "narrative cascade" provides an advantage in anticipating how public opinion and institutional responses evolve, revealing the long-term systemic impacts of seemingly disparate events and communication choices.
