I would suggest if you applied critical thinking skills on the top ten stories of the day....more than half would have ‘holes’ in the facts. The decline of journalism and critical thinking skills being taught in college....brought this problem to our frontdoor step.

What I have noticed is that many of these stories have headlines that are ultimately refuted by the story in some form or another but not till the very end. People rarely get past the headline let alone read the whole article

And the damage is done and the lie is spread.

Here is an example of a story I bit into, 20 republicans voted against censuring( censure lol) shifty, headline is true, but there is more content
Like the 16 million dollar fineā€¦..
