How do you wade through impending hype?
How do you wade through impending hype as I like to call it?
I get that predicting events before they happen is not an exact science but shouldn't there be a way to weed out those people and web sites that are mostly slinging hype mainly for profit/ clicks?
My impression is that hype and/ or false predictions, which have been always present, have taken on more of a front seat on TV and other media forms then ever before that I can recall. It's gotten to the point that it's hard to believe what anyone says of a predictive manner.
Does any one know of a web site or book that has tracked the effectiveness of specific people making prediction?
Or to round off my thoughts, is it best to write off things of a predictive nature as "for entertainment purposes only?"
As you might sense, the predictive thingy is a conundrum to me.
Thinking right now that the knowledgeable people on the subject manner of predictive programming have thoughts on this as well.
