FACT: …that which can be proven. Not hypothetical or ones opinion.
OPINION: …one’s view of a subject matter that is a belief…but cannot be supported with facts. A philosophical difference, as one may view a particular subject.
An Opinion that is supported by Facts….TRUTH.
We live in America where everyone has the right to have their own opinion…but not their own facts.
Politicians and political pundits have a language of their own where facts are not important…but “8 second sound bites” are. Their intent is that the 8 seconds will resonate with the “listener” without challenging the statement…and then later repeat it as fact.
There is always something under the surface, other than dirt…if you dig deep enough to investigate or challenge the 8-second sound bite.
Knowledge is powerful…when properly applied.
