Framing the narrative

See this story. Hence the urgent importance of proper framing of narratives to manipulate how people interpret data. The Repugs are effective masters, the liberals don't even accept the cognitive science on it, weird for those who purport to support science.


And please, don't give me the "it ain't ethical" crap. We all do it so it's better to do it consciously with some ethical integrity than to cede this important ground to those without any of that integrity whatsoever.

"
Robert Mueller seems to know that you can’t force-feed a moral realization. You can direct—or try to direct—another person’s attention to a text that draws on the testimony of credible witnesses, but you can’t compel interpretation. You can’t tell someone else what to make of it. In a genuinely free country, the question of what we do with what we know is on us. It can’t be deferred to someone else."
