Here’s a simple exercise to help you develop your critical thinking skills.
Choose a subject or piece of information that you’ve seen in the news or been told personally.  
Now ask yourself these questions:
Who said it? :
Someone you know personally? A person in power, such as an elected politician? Another type of public figure. A police chief, a movie star?
What did they say?
Were they giving their opinion on a subject or facts? If it was facts were they giving all the facts? Do you think the facts were not complete, they didn’t give the whole picture?
Did they have a reason for saying it?
If it was their opinion was it weighted to influence people to their cause? Were they presenting selected facts to make themselves or someone else look good?
What was the manner of their statement?
Were they happy or angry? Was it written or spoken? Was their statement easily understood or confusing?
When you’ve asked those questions of yourself write down the statement you were examining and the conclusions you came too and why you arrived at them. Prioritize your conclusions in the order in which they most influenced your decision.
