Kevin is exactly right. He has pointed out the cultural problem that afflicts the world today. If we see it on a screen, we are willing to believe it. If we don’t see it, we don’t believe it. Mind you, we don’t need to see the exact event being described or talked about, we merely need to see it being talked about on a screen to be willing to accept an assertion as fact. And the WWW has given the entire global population the ability to post anything. So we have people who will believe literally anything.
