Abstract

Phyllis M. Cunningham n his article, “Let The People very same paper, dramatically opposed “facts” are Choose,” Verne House has made given. For example, “Uganda After Years of Terror: I an impassioned appeal advocating A New Solidarity” and “300 Rebels Reported logic, rational analysis, objectivity, Killed in Clash with Uganda Army”-a scientific facts, and a process called “alternatives- contribution of the New brk Times. The consequences.” The first words he uses describe Pmgressive article then speaks of “loaded education as a neutral activity; the process he language,” e.g., demonstrations called ‘kivil champions comes out of this objectified activity disobedience” in communist-ruled countries and and depends on a scientific or rational decision- “terrorist acts” when occurring in the Mideast. making process. I wish to respond to Verne‘s The use of “unattributed sources,” which allows remarks by selecting and commenting on three all kinds of unvalidated information to come in as points. First I will discuss reporting facts versus factual news is another tactic. Further, there is editorializing; second, I comment on the unhealthy reliance on official sources and experts, definition of propaganda; and finally I discuss the which the authors call the “Kissinger-Haig limitations of a definition of adult education
