Question of Fact

Have you ever wondered whether the news we listen to is accurate or not?  Well, I have and so do millions of listeners out there.  The reason is that most of us would rather spend our time doing something that we love.  Since the news media are doing all the work, we would think that it is unnecessary for us to contribute more work to it unless it is our job.  In this video, Jon Steward was trying to let the audiences know that critical thinking is very important, especially the information that came from CNN.  According to this video, CNN only provided to its viewers twenty five to seventy percent of accurate information.  Therefore, it is our duty to check for the facts.  We cannot rely on the assumptions provided from the news media.  We must take a second step by using our critical thinking as a way to check for the facts.
