Reading through the comments, and don't mean to hijack this thread, but take the two statements:
- The Sky is Red
- The sky is blue
We all know which one is true, and which is false. Yet somehow I feel that how much you believe each statement depends on which side you are on and which side it came from. If your side said the sky is red, you'd believe it wholeheartedly.
You'd completely ignore the true facts (or convince yourself that they were false) to support "your side"
I think you got it all wrong.
They would go over the same point...
for example it`s RED by sunset so that they could turn the story around to their side facts are only facts when talking about the same thing.
In our case there are multiple intrests so everyone is saying the story in their version some facts might be true but they don`t even come into the picture (not talking about the people who write out of boredom like me
hope you get the point!
