The creators ofAn Illustrated Book of Bad Argumentsreturn at last with a desperately timely guide to rhetoric.
Tens of thousands of demonstrators packed the city’s streets on Friday.The actual count was 250,000. Whytens of thousands, then, and nota quarter million?
The grocer takes woke orders on its brands from a 17-year-old.The nameless 17-year-old’s opinion seems not worth considering. At what age will it be?
Rabbits zapped three badgers in an ambush last night, hours after six rabbits in a neighboring town lost their lives.Were the six rabbits the sole participants in losing their own lives? Those silly rabbits …
In this adorably illustrated book, old Mr. Rabbit is your guide to these and many more examples of loaded language. He mines real reporting (by respected and rogue media alike) to unmask rhetoric that shifts blame, erases responsibility, dog-whistles, plays on fear, or rewrites history – subtly or shamelessly. It takes a long pair of ears to hear what’s left unsaid – but when the very notion of truth is at stake, listening for “spin” makes all the difference.
