For a great example of fake news, rent the movie “Wag the Dog” with Dustin Hoffman and Robert De Niro. Not only is it hilarious, it’s actually quite convincing and offers a somber view of our political environment.
I agree with you. That was over 40 years ago and a lot has changed in the tire world since then.
