Conclusion:

At the conclusion of this project we realized that you have to be so careful about what you believe. The legalization of marijuana has been so dramatized in the media. It was good for us to find what was really the truth. Truthiness is everywhere. It doesn’t matter what topic it is or who is presenting the information. There will be bias. We just have to be smart enough to detect it. We also learned that not only are other news sources good at framing information in a certain way, but Fox News is extremely cunning. They hide information so well that while we were trying to find truth or truthiness it was quite difficult. This project definitely helped us find ways to better detect truthiness in the media.
