Thomas Jefferson: Truth and Oxford Dictionary

thomas jefferson: If Thomas Jefferson came down tomorrow to proclaim that honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom, Americans would ask him to move out of the way so they could finish watching the rest of Survivor or forward the latest fake news story, according to Huffington Post Canada. George Washington's cherry tree story would be pointless. It seems that truth is no longer of paramount importance or, as the Oxford dictionary more formally puts it, objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion. Oaths like the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth will seem quaint. The truth will no longer hurt. Many Americans won't be outraged by election tampering, even by a foreign country.
