Consider alternative frames

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

Watch for emotional framing

This content frequently uses emotional appeal. Notice when feelings are being prioritized over evidence.

▶

Question unstated assumptions

Arguments rely on assumptions treated as obvious. Ask what you'd need to already believe for the claims to land.
