Touché

I got it now. Misinformation, is the same thing I always think about when I watch TV. I wonder why the characters even trust the intelligence they get from unlikely sources and it ends up leading them to a marvelous situation predicted responses by the vilan. Sure it works fine when you have the whole script before you, but it is sort of creepy to think of how quick we are to accept evidence because it suits us.

I was so fortunate to have stumbled on an article today that actually explains the blatent use of misinformation, whoch I figured must,be a sort of unspoken joke sort of like the one where a guy says that he has a date with a supermodel cause she said so on the internet and gave other sources 9n the internet so it has to be true. Or I laugh at how photos are considered evidence of tv. Even an entire novice like me knows now how images can be manipulated, well, how many other things have been manipulated that we are not aware of?
