Hyperbolic Fallacy - FT#20

Summary: In the twentieth episode we explore the Hyperbolic Fallacy, with examples from Trump talking about his great memory and a selection of the things that he's the best in the world at. In Mark's British Politics Corner we look at Liam Fox being over optimistic about Brexit and Boris Johnson choosing an unfortunate adjective. In The Fallacy in the Wild, we check out examples from 'American Dad' and Angelina Jolie's cancer doctor as well as John Lennon and Yoko Ono. Jim and Mark go head to head in a game of Fake News, the game where Mark has to guess which of three Trump quotes Jim made up. Then we have an interview with veteran reporter Joe Strupp, author of Killing Journalism: How Greed, Laziness (and Donald Trump) Are Destroying News and How We Can Save It Finally, we round up some of the crazy Trump stories from the past week.
