   Apparently Massey subscribes to the Josef Goebbels theory of truth ....   
      
   "If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually   
   come to believe it."   
      
   and    
      
   "The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one   
   fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly - it must confine itself to a   
   few points and repeat them over and over."   
      
   Both quotes from Josef Goebbels (1897-1945)
