The illusory truth effect, also known as the illusion of truth, describes how when we hear the same false information repeated again and again, we often come to believe it is true.
This is actually coined "availability heuristic" by kanneman and taversky. Even though they won the "nobel prize" for it, the idea has seen many variations over hundreds of years. I find it funny how many business statisticians win nobel prizes playing out various aspects of the protocols of zion, but years after it was found.

Availability Heuristic, as coined by Kahneman was simply a reliance on one's ease of memory search. This would include the idea of "losing a penny in the dark and keeping your search around the light", but also the idea of repetition of any idea (overwhelming the inputs) and never leaving time for any other paradigm.
I will say though, it really does seem that most of these "names" are repeats of the same symptoms over and over again.

Cognitive Dissonance. It's an evolutionary trait we all have.
People are told many times in their life to never go near grizzly bears. You tell someone that grizzlies love getting scratched behind the ears. You show them a video. Then you take that person hiking, and you both see a grizzly.
Cognitive Dissonance is what prevents that person from trying to give the bear scratches. It is far more likely that hundreds of people are right, and one person is wrong. And even though they did see a video of a bear getting scratches, their brain tells them that there must be some factor involved in that which they don't know about.
Someone hears hundreds of times that Trump is a racist White Supremacist. You show them videos of Trump saying niggers built America and that he'll give the death sentence to Anti-Semites. That person continues to think that Trump is a racist White Supremacist. - That's Cognitive Dissonance.
