  Firms strategically disclose product information in order to attract
consumers, but recipients often find it costly to process all of it, especially
when products have complex features. We study a model of competitive
information disclosure by two senders, in which the receiver may garble each
sender's experiment, subject to a cost increasing in the informativeness of the
garbling. For a large class of parameters, it is an equilibrium for the senders
to provide the receiver's first best level of information - i.e. as much as she
would learn if she herself controlled information provision. Information on one
sender substitutes for information on the other, which nullifies the
profitability of a unilateral provision of less information. Thus, we provide a
novel channel through which competition with attention costs encourages
information disclosure.
