London, Oct 11 : In a move to improve the quality of discussion on its pages, YouTube has launched a new feature, called “audio preview,” to humiliate commenters by making them listen to their posts before they submit them.

London, October 11 : An online report depicts human psychology as a reason why politicians get away with bending the truth.

The report published by FactCheck. org, a non-profit website based at the University of Pennsylvania, says that people’s tendency to arrange the world into categories—viz. a Republican or Democratic politician—can lead voters to reach the wrong conclusions about candidates even when they have been exposed to the truth.

In substantiation of it suggestion, the report further states that even the least-engaged voter knows that presidential hopeful John McCain is a Republican, and thus links him to attributes shared by other Republicans.
