The Information industry is built on a certain quantity of information flow. News can be invented readily. Information is shaped to fit the medium and the available or required size

Over claims are made, or implications made in headlines or ticklers. Ever more advertising views for attention

Our media seem obsessed with “pushing the envelope”, which often means moving to ever more excess in search of attention.

In a world where information is a commodity, information that can be positioned as scarce, exclusive, or secret will have more value that common information. Thus, we see everywhere,“The 10 secrets of X, “Exclusive interview,” “What Y doesn’t want revealed.” “Tonight, A special.”

The first media outlet to cover an issue often defines its terms, context, and attitudes surrounding it. The first statement often becomes the permanent concept. How the issue will be viewed, what the alternatives are, etc.

The fallacy or false dilemma is often used, where one side is presented as highly undesirable and the other as attractive. Photographs do not speak for themselves. What happened before and what happened after? Often pictured are not worth a thousand words, the pictures are ambiguous until explained by words.

Selecting certain stories to report on while not selecting others or selecting certain details of a story while omitting others reflects not just the interest but the agenda of the media outlet. Whatever is ignored is seen as not important and in effect non existent.

There is an obsession with the new and different. Novelty, the unusual , will get our attention. We are a “been there done that” society and always want something new.

Because information is a commodity item, it must cater to the tastes of its consumers. In other worlds, information is shaped by cultural priorities.

We think by using the information given to us by others. When you make generalizations, you must do so based on the information you have received from the information inputs you make use of.

There is a saying, “Nothing so bad that some don’t like; Nothing so good that some won’t strike”. It is probably impossible to make any assertion that will not find some supporters and some detractors.

Old master paintings are in demand, hence art fraud. Designer luggage is in demand, hence product counterfeiting.

Many people believe that no accusation would be made without any basis, so that if an accusation is made, it must be true, at least in part. Many people are too busy to check anything out, so they just assume that accusations are valid

Television is mostly pictorial, partly aural, and very little textual. Therefore, the visual stories are the ones emphasized: fires, chases, disasters

The experimenter effect is the tendency for the expectations, actions, or biases of the researchers to affect or influence the responses which participants produce, and therefore at least partially produce the observed differences.- Lynne Henry

Samuel Johnson, an 18th century writer, said that “no one but a blockhead ever wrote except for money.” Today, some still write to inform, while there seems to be more emphasis on persuasion and spin. And more people than ever write to gratify their egos, keep their jobs, or make money.

The information we receive comes to us filtered, selected, slanted, verbally changed, and sometimes fabricated. what is left out is often even more important that what is included

Today, because of pressure to be first or at least not left in the dust, news media organizations pick up and often pass on many of the rumors that circulate online somewhere, together with the motivations to lie, dissemble, and slander, causes or constant churn of junk quality information to circulate
