How to see through hidden agenda of #paidnews. An American Method

Standard

By now people of India have become mature.

Atleast it seems so. We know that political spokepesrons, press reporters, advertisers, NGO and TV channels all are everyday busy in misleading us by giving us some parts of truth and hiding away some parts of truth from us.

Some time they give figoures also to plant total lies in our mind.

What do they gain by misleading us? Why do they mislead us?

THEY MUST HAVE SOME HIDDEN AGENDA.

What are the ways to protect us from being misled? How do we find their hidden agenda?

ANSWER

There are many authours who have written books only on these subject. I read one book called, “Bullshit at Workplace”

The book gave many formula which were helpful. But one formula which appealed me most is to ask first quiestion, “Why this now? Why at this time?

This question will lead you directly to Hidden Agenda of person who is giving you information.

Suppose, you read that CAG has disclosed huge COAL SCAM.

The first question you should ask before reading further is, “Why this now? Why CAG has chosen this time to disclose this?

If you will ponder over this, before reading further, you may get hidden agenda of CAG, if there is any.

If you see no hidden agenda and if you can see the context in which this information is revealed, good. Then read on.

But if you see any hidden agenda of CAG, well, think before accepting what you are being told.

Example 2

Suppose you are told that a Union Minister has decided to write a book on 2002 Gujarat riots. The first question, you should ask is, “Why this now? . The question will immediately lead to hidden agenda of Minister.

You can try this method on any news you read today or in next few days. Try to find if these questions protects you again being misled.

Test this methods on news about Anna, FDI, VODAPHONE, SONIA GANDHI, RAHUL GANDHI, DIGVIJAYSINH, GUJARAT, NARENDRA MODI etc. Probably these are the titles behind which some kind of hidden agenda can be easily seen.
