    In the last several years we have heard a lot about “fake news.” “Fake news” is what happens when something is reported to be true that isn’t true.

    Fake news is nothing new. That is, we’re not the first generation to grapple with truth vs. lies. Human nature is such that many people find it easier to tell a lie than to tell the truth. If lying was a sport, it would be the most popular sport on earth today. Politicians have the reputation ...read more
