Of course they do. The problem is that nobody can agree on what is
true. Nearly everybody
is misled by highly paid spin doctors, manipulated government reports
and news broadcasts, and partisan "talking points." We have now reached
the point where we head back into the dark ages- the moment when even
the propagandists begin to believe their own effluent and nobody any
longer has even the most remote idea what the truth is or how they
would recognize it if they encountered it.

But everybody still cares about truth - at least his or her personal
version of it.
