    I always thought that if you gave people all the information, they'd do the right thing, you know? Not always, maybe, but usually. More often than when they chose to do the wrong thing anyway. ... I thought if you told people *facts,* they'd draw their own conclusions, and because the facts were true, the conclusions would mostly be too. But we don't run on facts. We run on stories about things. About people.
