Normally I don’t like talking about politics. When stating opinions you are either preaching to the choir or infuriating the opposition. Rarely do you ever change a person’s view. Each side knows that they are absolutely correct. This post is not exactly about politics, but here is a perfect example of why I can’t stand Fox News’ reporting tactics, which they use incessantly while reporting on politics. The first image is a screen capture of a story the Wall Street Journal ran today about Google updating its privacy policy<\/a> by simplifying and consolidating their different products under one policy, something they’ve been telling people for many months now that they would be doing. The second image is Fox’s link to THE EXACT SAME STORY but adding their signature flair for fear-mongering headlines. Why do they feel it is so important to unnecessarily scare readers who may not be that savvy about daily tech news?<\/p>\n

(Amazing coincidence: while writing this post I received an email from Google letting me know about the policy changes.)<\/em><\/p>\n
