Building Logic

Critical Thoughts

Do I try to adapt my logic to the logic of the author? Why?

•To interpret events from the perspective of multiple views
•To find multiple sources of thought and information, not simply those of the mass media
•To identify the viewpoints embedded in news stories
•To mentally re-write (reconstruct) news stories through awareness of how stories are told from multiple perspectives
•To assess news stories for their clarity, accuracy, relevance, depth, breadth, and significance
•To identify contradictions and inconsistencies in the news (often in the same story)
•To identify the agenda and interests served by a story
•To identify the facts covered and the facts ignored in a news story
•To identify the points of view systematically presented in a favorable light and those presented in an unfavorable light
