  Edward Bernays - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
One of Bernays' favorite techniques for manipulating public opinion was the indirect use of "third party authorities" to plead for his clients' causes.
Bernays once engineered a "pancake breakfast" with vaudevillians for the icy Calvin Coolidge in what is widely considered one of the first overt media acts for a president.
Bernays is held in high regard by some and thoroughly despised by others even today, and was even named as one of the 1,000 most influential people of all time.

 The Corner House - Engineering of consent to human embryo cloning
I've borrowed the phrase 'engineer consent' from the practice of corporate public relations, and it perhaps sounds too precise, too much of a conspiracy theory, that a group of people sat down one day round a table and mapped out their strategy.
He described it as "quite simply, the use of an engineering approach - that is, an action based only on thorough knowledge of the situation and the application of scientific principles and tried practices in the task of getting people to support ideas and programmes.
Engineering of consent is not just about co-opting your opponents or buying up people.

 AMWA : Recruiting Women Smokers: The Engineering of Consent
The cigarette was a flexible symbol, with a remarkably elastic set of meanings; for women, it represented rebellious independence, glamour, seduction, and sexual allure, and served as a symbol for both feminists and flappers.
The industry, with the help of advertisers and public relations experts, effectively engineered consent for women as smokers.
The engineering of consent has a role to play in smoking cessation, since negative meanings for the cigarette can be engineered as well.
