21. It's usually a good thing to wait a day or two also

News comes too fast now. No time is taken to distill it or fact check it. But most of the time reliable sources will get to the bottom of the story within the time it takes to fact check.

I've found this to be a good practice. Too many times the first reaction is an automatic reactionary one designed to control the message.
