Lies, Myths and Downright Stupidity
Check out John Stosell’s “List of Popularly Reported Misconceptions.” Every one of them should be obvious to any educated individual with an ounce of independent thought. That they are rarely recognized as such in the media and elsewhere is a sad testament to irrationalism of our society.
Did you watch the report on 20/20? The best part was the clips of Stossel interviewing Ted Turner, who was insisting that “people are starving in the desert” because of overpopulation–which assumption Stossel quickly blew out of the water.
Pretty entertaining stuff!
