A blatant spin is designed to discredit an opponent or a
viewpoint on an important matter. When a story or incident is spun, it
accumulates ‘facts’ that are fabricated for a reason or to hide other facts
that discredit another perspective given by someone else. Spinning does not
follow the following rule “the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the
truth.”
Spinning may be done with politically correct wording, the
use of inflammatory terms or derogatory in nature. Spinning words of the truth
can be done in questions or statements. It can be facilitated to be used in
either method. There is no attempt to tell the truth or correlate any facts to
recognize a factual reality or attempt to make it so.
The sad news is that spinning the truth is an acceptable
practice and has become the way press releases and other events are presented to
the public as it normally fulfills their desire to know what happened but not
the actual facts of the incident or event.
Apathy is the spinner’s best friend as it leaves nothing
else to be questioned and gives an account that satisfies most and reduces the
collateral damage of what could be a painful outcome. Pushing the truth into
the shadows and the promotion of deception is common. It have become an
acceptable way to lie to the people. It does not contain any truth and its true
meaning as all have been altered to change the spotlight on the subject or
matter discussed.
