Viewer Guidance (3 tips)

▶

Notice retention tactics

Content structure prioritizes keeping you watching over informing you. Ask if the format serves understanding or attention.

▶

Consider alternative frames

Information is consistently shaped from one angle. Seek out how other sources present the same facts.

▶

Watch for group characterization

People or groups are reduced to types. Consider whether the characterization serves the argument more than the truth.
