Seeing is Not Believing
Not everything you see on TV is reality, not even the reality shows. If people would understand this very basic principal then it would be much more difficult to lead them into wars.
Especially when we have media outlets that mastered these manipulation techniques over decades with a proven record of faking news.
My requests to people with at least two functioning brain cells:
- When you see 'news' that interests you on your favorite TV channel, especially in the west because of their record, look for the same news from other sources, preferably from the opposite side not from an affiliate channel.
- After you see the 'news' from more than a channel try to apply some logic to it: does it make sense?
- After applying your logic try to debate it first by yourself: What if it's wrong or a fake news? Then debate the subject with others in your circle who you trust, usually.
- Once you're convinced the news is adding up based on the previous steps share it with the public or look for someone who has shared it and read the comments of strangers with open mind.
- If you reached this level the possibility the news you saw on the channel you're accustomed to is correct is 50%.
Wake up please, bad people are taking advantage of you to harm the rest of the world while you're asleep. Even the incumbent US president and proven liar calls western media "Fake News", shouldn't this tell you something like to what low level the western media can even go in lying exceeding that of Trump himself?

Beautiful, thanks for detailing the points, hopefully some more people in the west will wake up, some day... Before it's very too late.
