I was watching some Trump press report and he made some completely outrageous claim like that unemployment was at 3.4% or something, the lowest in 10+ years. That is not the normal amount, the normal amount is 7-10%. Since I read the liberal media, surely I would know if there were a historic level of low unemployment level. Maybe the true level is extremely high - 15-20% or something. I have two tasks for you: 1. Task 1. Find the true current unemployment level. This is closely tracked, should take you less than 15 seconds. 2. Compare with the liberal media reporting. Is the tone appropriate? Spoiler below: Spoiler spoiler spoiler The first article I found was "Hiring Slowed in September as Unemployment Rate Fell to a 50-Year Low", in the New York Times. If you did 1 and 2 you would find this is totally inappropriate reporting. I like this example as it's very natural and factual. The unbiased headline would be: unemployment hits 50-year low. The facts are still there, but the actual headline is clearly biased and totally inappropriate. There is no way that can be considered an appropriate headline. It's like imagine if Iran agreed to denuclearize and stop seeking nuclear weapons, and the headline said: "Iran armies, planes and helicopters have the U.S. in sights, but won't be sending nuclear bombs for now". The greatest possible success could be misreported to an absurd level. Or let's say Trump makes vaccines mandatory and signs legislation introducing fines for parents of unvaccinated children, due to child endangerment. This would be an amazing win, but based on my research, the news would report it in an outrageously biased way. Like what's the most biased thing you can think of. Maybe: "Trump still doubts vaccines, even as he makes some mandadory." Just something outrageously biased that takes everything away from the huge win. Go ahead and do the exercise and you will get really clear results. It's a really interesting exercise. If I had time I would look at a Republican (Trump) list of "wins", then do 1 and 2 for each one: find the actual facts or figures, usually quite straightforward. 2. Decide what would be appropriate reporting. See if they are reported appropriately or in an outragrously biased way. (Instead of man lands on moon, some outrageously negative version). (I would assume if you do this exercise you will fine many Republican points are false or exaggerated, hence why it is a 2 part exercise for each point.)
