It is so interesting to see how beliefs and denials color our viewpoints to produce two different answers. When I was working on the double-blnd test, the process for the proof of truth shows how different views originate and how to avoid such errors. Presently, “fact checking” of what a candidate says is the best way to see who is untrue. But there is also the source of information. Those second sources bend the facts, a third source will bent the facts some more and by the time the view is passed through five or six biasing reviewers we are all ready to hang the original person or burn them as a devil. Sensationalist inspire mob action and distort the ordinary into catastrophe. Sensationalists inspire terrorism and war.

A very sensitive mixture indeed.
Too much grease and we may never make it back out of the tub.
What a party!
Propoganda is alive and well in American politics. The only way to fact check something is go to the original source (text, tape, video, etc.) and see what actually transpired. Trusting a third party is unwise, because they will manipulate factual information for their own benefit.
