I am looking for a word where people are able to see the hidden meanings and subliminal manipulation in the media. Is there any word, phrase or idiom that might suit the narrative I'm trying to summarise? I don't want my project to be titled 'seeing through manipulation' if that helps.
This is for an art and design project, rather than a paper. The word doesn't have to be too academic but should have a certain flair to it. I hope that makes any sense. I'm sorry I'm really poor in explaining this!
Sample sentence [project title] (from comment below by OP):
'How to _____________ [See Through Subliminal Manipulation] in Advertising'

Depending on the slant of the article, maybe something about "Resisting Media Misdirection" or something. "Media Misdirection" has a nice ring, and has the connotation of dishonest trick, if that is the line of argument you are pursuing.
