The thing that seems to light fuses here, ds is that in your black and white world only your "facts" are true.
As we've recently seen, CBS and Newsweek had "facts" that turned out to be - shall we say less than true?
There's also the issue that "facts" can be selectively sifted. NOT to imply you'd do that, but any of us can come across a set of previously sifted "facts" and then quote them as truth - when they aren't. The complete picture sometimes has a different color than black or white.
