Lies Your Other American History Teachers Told You, Friday
"Since next week is a break and today is Friday, we'll be going easy on you," Tony said. For whatever measure they considered easy, that was. "Lies aren't just in history, they are started and perpetuated every single day."
"More so nowadays," Steve muttered judgmentally. "The truth matters. Decisions that affect hundreds, thousands, or millions of lives shouldn't be made just because your son-in-law lost his security clearance for being a massive, compromised moron."
Tell us how you really think, Steve. "So today we're going to make you watch Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC," he added.
"Sorry." No really, Tony was sorry to do this to you. "But, on the plus side, if you make it through that without breaking a television, we'll buy you dim sum on the trip. Deal?"
Steve grinned. "Seems like a good idea to me. See how long you last before you go, 'that can't possibly be right', then look up the information using three credible sources--InfoWars and Brietbart do not count--and hand it in by the end of class, okay?"
