Appeal to Outdated Data - FT#176

In the one-hundred-and-seventy-sixth episode, we explore the Appeal to Outdated Data, starting with Trump getting Chicago gun laws wrong, and being disingenuous about Fauci's masking advice, then Musk pretending the press minimizes violence against white men.

In Mark's British Politics Corner, we look at Nigel Farage using old figures to claim the cost of aiming for Net Zero is too high.

In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Jonathan Jarry, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and Boston Legal.

Jim and Mark go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Mark has to guess which one of three Trump quotes Jim made up.

Then we talk about the Trump's latest flurry of pardons.

And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.
