Manufactured controversy refers to a situation where disagreement or conflict is artificially created or exaggerated, often for specific purposes such as attracting media attention, influencing public opinion, or advancing a particular agenda. This type of controversy may involve taking a relatively minor or inconsequential issue and framing it as a significant or divisive topic, capturing public interest and generating discussion, debate, or outrage.
