A statement of fact is only read as such when the reader and writer agree on the terminology used. That might lead to more interesting studies.

- scholia 10y agoThat's not actually true. Try reading some fact-checking sites.
- dwringer 10y agoCare to elaborate? How can people discuss facts when they have contradictory definitions of the words being used in an attempt to communicate?
- scholia 10y agoIn my experience, people don't actually have "contradictory definitions of the words being used". If they are mis-using a word, that's simply wrong. But you're welcome to quote me an example from, say, Politifact or the Washington Post fact-checker or Snopes....
