Opinions and Group Discussions

Opinions, blog posts and discussions can be biased but useful. Sometimes people closely aligned with particular candidates write opinions without disclosing their relationships to the candidate.

Questions to ask yourself:

• Can you identify where the writer(s) are coming from? Do you agree with their positions?
• Do the posters offer evidence for their opinions? Is that evidence credible? Is it proportionate, or blown out of proportion?
