1.? Have you ever seen the movie Wag the Dog?

No?

2.? Have you ever quit a job because it was bad for your health?

Not exactly, but I have moved to a lower-impact per-diem nursing job because I spent a year in a nursing home during this pandemic. I was helped along because the nursing home found some fulltime and parttime nurses, though, reducing its need for per-diem staff.?

3.? Do you think the government is monitoring social media?

Duh. Every character typed.
?
4.? What was your favorite Superbowl ad this year?

DId not see the Bowl or the ads.?

3.? How can you tell satire from real reporting?

I cruise the Internet, comparing different reporting perspectives and? associated?studies or other clues in order to distill points or facts that seem fundamental to the situation. Beyond that, I make no claims.
