In the field of law, for example, we often hear there is already a prisoner found guilty and sentenced to death based on strict legal procedures and verification, but later there is new evidence that proves that he is not guilty. The possibility of such can happen.
Similarly, the "truth" that certain scientific achieved through strict laboratory testing procedures, but later proven mistaken. Similar things can happen in the "journalistic truth" is achieved through a series of journalistic procedure.
Walhasil, not the "truth" itself is important here, but whether the "truth" is achieved through proper procedures, which in turn can duji by other people.
