@caykoh Just because someone is more studied doesnt make them right

2018-12-05 10:32:39 UTC  

Ultimately its whats said

2018-12-05 10:34:00 UTC  

I agree. So here's what really gives me friction...

2018-12-05 10:37:05 UTC  

If the entity issuing the message can be accurate, and thust trustworthy, regardless of its reputation or current standing, as long as the message in question maps onto the facts and data

2018-12-05 10:37:43 UTC  

Can the term fake news actually even exist in our vernacular?

2018-12-05 10:38:23 UTC  

As be im ng attributeed to the entity

2018-12-05 10:38:32 UTC  

Being *

2018-12-05 10:39:03 UTC  

If something contradicts itself or misleads it should considered less credible

2018-12-05 10:39:15 UTC  

Fake news story, or fake news article, I assume would be the good faith substitute

2018-12-05 10:39:44 UTC  

Ah glad you mention that. So...

2018-12-05 10:40:35 UTC  

If BBc contradicts itself today, and yes tsrday once too, does tomorrow's stories from them have less credibility already ?

2018-12-05 10:40:48 UTC  

Yeah

2018-12-05 10:40:54 UTC  

To some extent

2018-12-05 10:41:06 UTC  

Unless they clear it up and push an honest narrative

2018-12-05 10:41:14 UTC  

Instead of evade

2018-12-05 10:41:17 UTC  

Sk that's the messenger matterin g more than the message

2018-12-05 10:41:30 UTC  

No but the message caused the dent

2018-12-05 10:42:33 UTC  

Ultimately people want something credible but what they say is not automatically wrong

2018-12-05 10:44:06 UTC  

So I guess its what matters the exposure or the message

2018-12-05 10:44:51 UTC  

As a good reputation leads to exposure and the message is whats shown

2018-12-05 10:45:39 UTC  

But if two days in a row, BBC fucked up their,let's say reporting on soccer hooligans rioting, falsely claiming one side was more violent than the other. Should I be skepticle of BBC reliability and reporting the accuracy of the soccer match scores?

2018-12-05 10:46:00 UTC  

No because those are not related

2018-12-05 10:46:11 UTC  

Well you should be skeptical of anything shown to you

2018-12-05 10:46:24 UTC  

Just bbc even more so after that happened

2018-12-05 10:46:35 UTC  

You can’t spin an observable fact such as weather or match results

2018-12-05 10:46:51 UTC  

But just about anything else can be spun

2018-12-05 10:47:16 UTC  

Also do your own research

2018-12-05 10:47:18 UTC  

So i trust bbc weather reports but not their political analysis

2018-12-05 10:47:29 UTC  

I agree Largezo112, but would make a point that you can its just difficult, allege referee corruption incomtence

2018-12-05 10:48:16 UTC  

You can measure anger by stats or the metaphysical state

2018-12-05 10:48:17 UTC  

And you can spin the message to an audiences preferbce

2018-12-05 10:48:23 UTC  

^

2018-12-05 10:48:24 UTC  

You can Trust BBC???

2018-12-05 10:48:34 UTC  

ain't they the least trusted media thingy in the world??

2018-12-05 10:48:40 UTC  

Cutting clips or leaving out stats etc.

2018-12-05 10:48:51 UTC  

@Stefan Payne Its an example

2018-12-05 10:49:00 UTC  

On what content, stefan?

2018-12-05 10:49:10 UTC  

However if facts become politicized we are in trouble “you cannot argue against the global warming which is a fact “ would be a fallacy

2018-12-05 10:49:27 UTC  

I only know the piece of Paper of that Monty Python Guy that showed that 23% of Brits trust their Media

2018-12-05 10:49:34 UTC  

@Stefan Payne read my messages properly before jumping the gun

2018-12-05 10:49:54 UTC  

I like Jumping guns *muhahaha* 😄
