I knew about how the Delphi method could be used and abused, and how its abuse was exploited years ago. You can find discussion and complaints about it in old newsgroups posts.
The Delphi Method is a consensus and decision making method in controlled group settings. It is not about propaganda in mass media at all.
Much is what is blamed on Delphi, is really just those in charge of a discussion rigging it and using accomplices in the audience. Just like every CNN townhall meeting with "average" Americans.
What's your point?
I know lots of n00bies that say they've been here for decades. I think Rush called them "seminar callers"...
