Groupthink

The Why Factor Series 3
Episode 1 of 10

Presenter Mike Williams explores Groupthink, when we collude with actions we know to be wrong. What makes us prepared to say that black is in fact white?

The Why Factor investigates the concept of "Groupthink". How the perceived wisdom of our allies and colleagues can influence our choices and persuade us to make disastrous military decisions, join cults or simply deny the evidence before our very eyes.
