  • David Mamet thinks DEI is 'fascist totalitarianism' orchestrated by 'diversity capos' and 'diversity commissars.'

Deceptions

55%

Examples:

  • The author states that all five members of Queer Eye were of equal importance but earlier in the article it is mentioned that Bobby Berk was credited with being responsible for bringing on new clients and expanding their business which implies he may have had a more significant role than others.
  • The author states that there was friction between Bobby Berk and Tan France but it was personal and had nothing to do with the reason for Berk leaving the show. However, later in the article it mentions that their contracts ran out after seven cycles which implies that this could have been a contributing factor to his departure.
