I Know the Truth, So Don't Bother me with Facts

According to the article "I know the truth, so don't bother me with facts" by Jeffrey Klugger which shows how human minds are changing regularly. also about a research made at "Ohio University", in which that study confirms that is easy to manage other point of view and what they believe in.I agree with Jeffrey Kluger about the idea that human being can change  
regularly. this essay will discuss the key reasons of my opinion in greater detail. 

      First, humans have a basic knowledge from their childhood which makes them reversing their opinion instead of thinking deeply. The media is one of the biggest issues and powerful instrument that can changes people's thinking. furthermore, the media can be in any place in the world that we can not be part of. For example, concerning the health of the president of my country "Algeria",I knew from the media that he doing well and he is capable to govern the country for another presidential term.Moreover, most of the people believe that the president is in full physical and mental health,in fact, people were deceived by the Algerian media, the president still sick. 

     second, most people deceive by rumors. rumors often grow because people want to know, so they make up some reasons according to their limited knowledge or benefits to spread rumors. Although, there are many proofs in front of us, we usually ignore to use our brains and to think deeply. As I mentioned before in the previous example about the Algerian president "Boutaflika", since the media confirm that he is in full physical and mental condition, however, I tried to convince my friends that he is still in a bad situation by the fact that he never show up in the TV about a year, after they realize by evidence that is truth, they change their minds.

     in conclusion, i feel that humans remain dupes and deceive by rumors and it will most likely intensify with the new advancements in media, however, we do have control over how to use our brains and establish a pattern of open communication that allows us to remain aware of what's being said.
