Unless you have been under a rock the past few weeks, you have heard the phrase, âAlternative Facts.â Kellyanne Conway, Counselor to the President, coined this phrase when she defended White House
Press Secretary Sean Spicer's statements regarding Donald Trump's inauguration.
Chuck Todd responded by saying "Alternative facts are not facts. They are falsehoods."
âAlternative Factsâ sounds very subjective, doesn't it? Are alternative facts an outright lie? A half-truth? Or, the perceived ârealityâ of the person providing the facts?
We arenât here to go into the politics of the phrase, because that is irrelevant. We would like to address how Alternative Facts damage sales hiring outcomes.
