Summary

Birthers. Truthers. Moon hoaxers. Antivaxxers. Holocaust deniers. Young Earth creationists. These are just a few of the purveyors of misinformation who thrive on the internet. Never before has the truth been more accessible and lies so contagious. In this con-fusing environment, how does an honest person find the facts? What distinguishes real conspiracies from conspiracy theories, real science from pseudoscience, and actual history from bogus accounts? How does one evaluate the credibility of rumours? Ustilising the tools of critical thinking, Bullspotting shows readers how to make distinctions and how to spot evidence that has been manufactured or manipulated to create a false impression. At a time when the average person is bombarded with phony information on a daily basis, this book will prove not only a great read but also an invaluable resource.
