Non-fiction is not fake news and spin.

Ask an AI -
Is creative writing for non-fiction equivalent to spin or propaganda?

Reply:
No, creative writing for non-fiction is not equivalent to spin or
propaganda. Creative writing refers to the process of creating
fictional stories, while spin and propaganda are forms of
communication that aim to influence public opinion through biased or
misleading information.

In contrast, creative writing for non-fiction involves writing factual
accounts based on real events and people. While there may be some
artistic license taken in terms of how the story is told, the goal is
still to present an accurate representation of what happened. The
author's personal beliefs or biases should not interfere with the
presentation of facts.

It's important to note that even when writing non-fiction, authors can
unintentionally introduce bias into their work due to unconscious
assumptions or cultural influences. Therefore, it's essential for
writers to approach their subject matter objectively and do thorough
research to ensure accuracy. Additionally, they should strive to
represent diverse perspectives fairly and avoid making sweeping
generalizations about groups of people.

In conclusion, while creative writing for non-fiction may involve some
storytelling techniques, it does not equate to spin or propaganda.
Instead, it aims to provide readers with a truthful account of events
based on evidence and reliable sources.
