Son has been taking writing classes on how to spin the truth. Well, truth isnt part of this type if writing. Its all spin. How to manipulate quotes and rake it out of context to support a position . I hope my teen is learning that while he is writing bs, so is the rest of the world. Maybe that is the point of the class. IDK.

Four hours spent quoting and spinning a paper from Fast Food Nation. RETORIC is the style . Cant help but think this is the new style that is pervasive. And persuasive. But not necessarily truthful.
