11. I don't like the responses above. Tell him that it is easy to lie about lies these days.

Most of these point to Politifact. That's a Right-wing sponsored attack website.
1st look for the real news sites.
2nd look to see if the article subject is really something important or not.
3rd look at the article.
4th did the person actually say that
5th was it really untrue
For example, ABC (good), says Obama says Fast and Furious begins in Bush admin.
ABC says FandF began 9 months after Obama took office. (good info)
ABC says other gun running programs began in the Bush admin. (good info)
ABC says, same bad stuff but they weren't called FandF. (Back to Obama's statement)
ABC says Obama says: Fast and Furious program. (okay)
So, how does one say that FandF was just another in a long line of such programs that started under Bush and were just renamed several times and not brought up to the new head of the department without sounding like an encyclopedia, because you still have to bring up the context of the story that brings this whole thing up.

6th ask if the story is really as clear as the headline suggests

People don't read critically anymore.

It's easy to lie about lying these days.
