Truth or Lie?

One cannot always distinguish the Truth from the Lie, but you can enhance your possibilities by
asking a series of questions. For instance:

1. Can you trace the original source of an assertion?

2. What does the original source say?

3. Does the sender has anything to gain by convincing me?

4. Do I see the information as a whole or do I only pick that piece of information that
correspond with my worldview (weltanschauung)?

5. Do I think or do I just run with the pack?
