[l5] Oliver Tearle. Who Said, ‘A Lie Is Halfway Round the World Before the Truth Has Got Its Boots On’? June 2021. URL: https://interestingliterature.com/2021/06/lie-halfway-round-world-before-truth-boots-on-quote-origin-meaning/ (visited on 2023-12-08).
I think this source interesting because it shows that even famous quotes can have wrong information about their origins. It reminds us about social media today. Sometimes people share something without checking if it is true. If the post becomes popular, more and more people may believe it. I think the false information can spread much faster than the truth. Even if someone corrects it later, many people may never see the correction.
