ABSTRACT

With all of this “space” in printed form and on the air which must be filled every single day, there is a need to find information to talk and write about. The result of all of these factors has been a proliferation of investment

dis-information

. Dis-information presents a distorted view of reality and, generally, creates

more problems than it solves. This dis-information consists mostly of reports on day-to-day activity, which is confusing and distracting. It may be misguided, sensational, and lack any theoretical foundation. False ideas can become so widespread that the public, for the most part, simply accepts them as fact.
