THAT’S A GREAT QUESTION

It’s one of the most commonly uttered phrases being used lately. Most often heard on news and talk shows on TV and radio, usually by the person being interviewed or questioned. This is fine but I have a problem with the difficulty getting a GREAT (or factual) answer. And how do you know if the answer proffered is honest or factual? You don’t unless you are already well informed on the subject and therefore don’t need to ask the “great question”. Depending on who you ask you can get two completely opposite answers, or often just the opinion of the questioned person.

What I need is a set of facts in order to form MY opinion. I’m not brilliant , but given actual, factual information, I can formulate a proper and accurate opinion. There is no shortage of opinions or even information but what filter can I use to winnow it down to just the facts? If anyone has the answer to that “great question” please fill me in!!
