So let us assume: People are being told lies for whatever reason. One reason might be that someone who spreads those lies benefits from telling those lies to the people. I think he/she must have a reason for that, otherwise he could as well tell the truth.
The people believe it, the liar lives on like he did before (or better).

The other possibility is that this person tells the truth. In that case there should be enough evidence to back that up.

I have attended enough events and read about this in the newspapers or other media, to be highly critical of such articles and the 'truth' told.
Believeing without questioning is like a religion, you believe without posing questions, even facing unbelievable events. But we are not living in the middle ages after all, where you either believed your king/the church, or died.

So you assume people fare better by believing all and not questioning even obvious lies ? Well you may even be right, life may be easier that way. I guess i do not like seeing certain people get away with obvious lies. I have to, i know.

Does that make more sense than your question ? I really don't know
Yeah yeah you are one of those guys...
