Are You Sure About That‪?‬

Phone in hand, TV on, we wake up and fall asleep to endless information. There’s no escape—we are drowning in a sea of breaking news, notifications, and popular beliefs and claims. Every day, we encounter hundreds of posts and podcasts on politics, celebrities, or current events. People share links to “expert” recommendations on Instagram or Reddit. YouTube and TikTok bring us those who want to instruct us on the realities of the world or pass on longstanding conventional wisdom, all in the hopes of influencing our decisions and actions. 

The information overload of the constant news and information cycle is exhausting and extremely frustrating. You may ask: Just what or whom should we believe? Are You Sure About That? Discerning Fact from Fiction helps readers navigate the perilous informational terrain of contemporary life. We provide a game plan of strategies and guidance for easily and reliably assessing the accuracy of any claim, helping readers to cut through the noise and adjust what they know.
