How about the question "did you know most high powered bikes have speed limiters?".

What do you think the answer from the 12 year old will be?

Taken from Wikipedia
" Propoganda "
Propaganda is a type of message aimed at influencing the opinions or behavior of people. Instead of impartially providing information, propaganda is often deliberately misleading, using logical fallacies, that, while sometimes convincing, are not necessarily valid. Propaganda techniques include: patriotic Flag-waving, appealing, Glittering generalities, Intentional vagueness, Oversimplification of complex issues, Rationalization, introducing unrelated Red herring issues, using appealing, simple Slogans, Stereotyping, testimonials from authority figures or celebrities, Unstated assumptions, and encouraging readers or viewers to "jump on the bandwagon" of a particular point of view.


Where is this leading and how has it come about? What is the agenda of the journalist and the papers editor? Does this mean we will have roving current affairs journalists up around Healesville and Marysville looking for some new sensationalisms on they're way back from the fires?
Cant they just go back to bothering Brant and Todd?
