Deceptions

30%

Examples:

  • Edey led the Boilermakers with 37 points and 10 rebounds, yet the author quotes him saying he had a few stretches where he wasn't effective. This is false as Edey was very effective throughout the game.
  • The author states that Purdue fell to UConn when they were leading at halftime and only lost by five points. This is a lie of omission as it fails to mention that Purdue was actually down 36-30 at the end of the first half.
