Current Events and Critical Thinking

Following the news and understanding global issues take a great deal of critical thinking.  Many times, current issues occurring evoke great emotion in us and create a desire in us to help the situation. But, we must always remember to not take for fact everything we see and hear. We need to think critically about what we see and hear and not let emotions determine our opinions, but rather evidence and fact.
