Half the Picture

 Two sides to a coin but we can only see one at a time. Still, we know another side is there.

 

Half the picture is more deceiving. We often are not aware we are only seeing a portion of the story. Therefore judgment may be skewed and ultimately unjustly harsh.

 

Half the picture

 In our information age diligence is not always due, but forgone in order to get what we think the story is about out in front of the populace for instant assessment. 

 

Many, many good people are being hurt by this while those with ill will may profit.

Journalism 101. Corroborate your source. Give your readers the full picture. 

 

And if you can be anything...yes...Be Kind. But also...


Be responsible.
