                              "I know the Truth, So don't Bother Me with Facts "


According to the passage from Jeffrey Kluger "I know the truth, so don't bother me with facts" states that humans have long been duplicates by rumors and lies and sometimes is very easy to do so. The passage states that a study was made just to determine how such false beliefs and allegations are made and what does it take to free people from believing in these. Secondly it states how easy it is to be able to manipulate people and their beliefs with just showing pictures and false quotes and allegations, just to make them believe in something that is not real and even if people try to take the time to learn these facts the effort is not as good as it should. The author Kluger, also states that when subjects are presented with data that contradicts their beliefs, they often lead to a situation responding to an inclination to present a partial perspective because no one likes to admit they’re wrong.
