Time has gone when the man reading the news would just give the facts and pass to the next item

Now they f"
ill in more detail and gradually the story becomes more detailed as it passed from one news reader to the next

"At half past six we are going to advance"
at the end of the line becomes
"At half past six we are going to a dance"

Hi Phil, I would say A little fact and a hell of a lot of fiction. They want us to to learn only what they want us to know. The politicians, the popes and all those guys want power over the masses, and they can only get this by filling us with lie. I loved your words, my friend....Peter

Now there's the term for most of the news we find on social media today. With this more advanced tool in communicating just anything to people, deception can easily draw any one in.

Creative Reporting? ugh...yes.

I remember being a kid...we had Huntley and Brinkley...Cronkite, Frank Magee and others.

They just relayed the news...didn't make it or try to be stars.

smart piece here.
