Four Moves and Old Habits
The Caulfield materials focuses on something I have long responded to – ‘factual posting.’ Back in the early days of social media the missing children reports aimed at pulling at heart strings and stroking egos due to the numbers of people repeating ‘fake’ news (yes before DT there was fake news) that the author created …
