For posting satire from The Onion and other similar sources.
redundancy, but not for its own sake
Be nice. All instance rules apply.
So I went to dinner last night and the place had Fox on their TV. Now I know the show is bullshit but some morbid curiosity had me check here and again to see just how bad it was these days.
At one point there was a commercial that in short claimed "Iran has attacked Israel! Send us $45 to help provide food and relief to the victims!"
This is the kind of brainwashing endured by a sizable part of our population.
“Iran has attacked Israel! Send us $45 to help provide food and relief to the victims!”
Way too many people don't understand the difference between 'True' and 'Misleading'. Something can be True and also hurt your ability to understand reality due to being misleading.
Yeah, but something like this really stretches misleading as a definition. I suppose they wouldn't get nearly as many ~~suckers~~ patriots sending money if they said "Iran has retaliated after being attacked by Israel!" though.

Exactly. That's all 'spin' is. Selectively telling the truth in order to manipulate people into believing something that isn't true.
It’s sad that this is a satirical piece
