blog 3: i know the truth, so don't bother me with facts

The author of this article tried to explained how people's belief were changed easily by mass media. In the article, the author used some poplar rumors to start the article. The author can't not believe that some people trust HIV was made by government lab. The author's idea about the humanity is that people are easily misdirected by rumors. Then the author moved his discussion to the mosque which is going to build in Manhattan. The author supported his idea by using the example of the mosque and the imam, such like people believed the imam was a terrorist, because his speech is about american involvement in wars. By using the result of the experiment, it tells us that people were changed their mind by reading the rebuttals.
