I can’t argue with the fact that people truly do read for many reasons. Unfortunately, I haven’t read the books you mentioned.

I am not mentioning this one book to counter your response, just adding to the conversation.

Greg Mortenson’s book Three Cups of Tea: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/04/08/is-it-time-to-forgive-greg-mortenson.html

I saw this guy bring a large crowd to their feet at a conference, and then later to find out there were discrepancies, stuck with me. Add all the fake news that we are being pitched, and these thoughts fell out of my head onto the screen.

Linda, I appreciate appreciate your comments, Medium is so much more interesting when people talk. Just between you and I; I felt a little anxious hitting submit on a piece like this, because I didn’t feel like everything I was saying was completely true. Then again, that seemed to be the theme.
