Great list. I too believe that I have developed an effective BS or fake news detector. I noted the left shift of the media during the second term of W.
I believe though that we are screaming at the wall a bit here... attacking the symptom of a giant problem... a root cause... that is systemic.
The copious evidence of coordinated talking points from all leading Democrat politicians, left political pundits and media mouthpieces (that are 90% in bed with the Democrats) tells us there is a control central for all of this. I have yet to read any investigative report on this. There has to be an insider that would write the tell-all book. How can this cabal of power continue to corrupt the information world without anyone blowing a whistle?
Thanks for this primer on "How to tell a fact from a lie," John. I've ever been leery of news reports or posts/comments on social media that seem to swear by all that's holy to be factual information. Most times one can dismiss the item, or comment or reply with a simple query: "Source, please."
Great article. Those are good points yet I personally find the best way is to keep the TV off and if it is on stay away from mid-stream media.
I don't watch or listen or read any broadcast news, left or right. That way I know I'm not being lied to. No influencer gets my attention.
Subscribed. Restacked. Saved.
