The article "I Know The Truth, So Don't Bother Me With Facts" writing by Jeffrey Kluger show us how simple minded people like to stick to their idea of reality and do not like to be judge for what they think is the truth, but this people are not the only ones who like to stick to their own ideas as they are others who just do not know how to maintain the truth so they ignore the facts and stay to their ideas because many times they are scared the the truth might be to great for them to handel.
A good example of how people like to get absorb by publicity stunts is giving in the text when Feisal Abdul Rauf the iman who is leading the effort to get a center in ground zero which will have a mosque is being target because in the wake up of 9/11 Rauf said "America involvement in wars in the arab world made made U.S. an accessory to the terrorist attacks" people got confuse and though the Rauf was in the side of the terrorist by saying the words the he said even though he was not because Rauf wants to foster tolerence between the east and west as stated in the passage.
It is almost sad how we as people are easily convince by lies the are many times made up by other people who just love to create arguments or sometimes this type of lies are just made up by people who misinterpret the truth and fall for a lie the they themselves created, Is always good to do a little research on a topic the you are not so sure about it being truth or not because listening to a story that those not have any facts is not worth arguing for.
