If anything, the use of selected truths to mislead people is worse than the use of outright falsehood because the use of truth lends credibility to the whole story.
Quite apart from the chilling implications of the kind of State control you seem to want to see implemented over our print media, you really haven't thought this through at all, have you?

People are gullible enough they believe outright lies anyway.
Do you really believe by the way there can be a shred of truth someone can have holidays abroad buy designer clothing, and live a comfortable life on under £80 a week? Clearly there would be other cash involved in such a situation. I knew the story was tripe before even doing any research on it.
Why dont you just say it, you think the current mechanism of lieing is fine. As you clearly dont want any change. Otherwise you would be saying I agree but your proposed solution is wrong how about this instead.
