An entertaining look at some of the misunderstandings, mistakes and just plain lies that we face every day. Looking at how the media, the government and, well, just about everyone else, cannot be trusted.

It was published in 2009 and is very much of its time, it's also unfortunate that the authors misunderstood the term "beeline", made a mistake over how police officers work and moved Sizewell nuclear power station a couple of hundred miles down the coast to Dungeness. I suppose it just proves that you can't believe everything you read.
