WHICH HEADLINE IS TRUE?
August 28, 2026​

---

Can you spot the real headline? Only one of these is true:

A. "Amid Global Change, 85% of Small Businesses Lack Any Economic Preparedness Plan"
B. "New Study Shows: 90% of US College Graduates Unaware of Economic Preparedness Strategies"
C. "According to a Survey, 75% of Economists Predict a Recession Every Five Years"​

---

Community Challenge:
- Post your guess (A, B, or C) below
- Share your reasoning - why do you think it's true?
- Did any of the false headlines trick you? Why did they seem plausible?

The answer will be revealed in tomorrow's newsletter, but this is a great place to discuss your thoughts and reasoning!

Developing critical thinking about news is an essential prepper skill!​

Leaning toward C here—economists predicting recessions is practically a sport at this point! A and B both seem a bit dramatic, even for today’s headlines, but C feels like it’s got just the right mix of “well, duh” and actual plausibility. Then again, headlines these days are wild enough that none of these would surprise me. Did anyone else almost fall for B?
