If people are pressured into saying something, they will actually believe it to avoid cognitive dissonance. It's called forced compliance theory. in the Festinger and Carlsmith experiment, after doing a really tedious and boring task, subjects were payed either $1 or $20 to tell someone else that the task would be fun. Those who were payed only $1 settled their cognitive dissonance by telling themself that the task really was fun.
