Fact checking and verification is an essential part of journalism. When a confusing media environment includes statements like "Truth is not truth" and "The president offered alternative facts," people need to be ready to consider the presentation of reality in deciding if a statement is misleading or patently false. Detecting Deception applies the concepts of logical argumentation to supplement the verification techniques that are the stock and trade of any media professional.Pithy and practical, Amanda Sturgill draws from present day news examples to help people recognize the most common bad arguments public figures make.
