Is that DVD really the best for baby’s brain? Exploitive class distinction in Kid Nation
Aug 15

Take a look at this picture and tell me what’s wrong.

I am only speaking from experience but every bullet I have ever fired didn’t look like these afterwards. 

We are constantly bombarded with images in such a rapid fashion that there can be a tendency not to analyze what is being shown.  It is accepted at face value for what we are told it represents.

I think there is still a very strong attitude that if an image comes from a “reputable” source then the accompanying text is an accurate representation of the image’s content. Implicit trust overrides critical thinking efforts. Society as a whole is media illiterate — lacking the ability (and desire) to discern the accuracy and subliminal intents of information poured forth constantly.

But maybe the text is accurate…perhaps someone may have thrown the bullets at the house thus hitting it.  Even so…be honest. Was that the initial impression you got from the caption?
