Little White Lies

Little white lies have often become acceptable in peoples everyday lives. Whether it be an untruthful compliment, or an over exaggeration of a story. There is a huge difference between a big lie and a little white lie, because usually little white lies are harmless. In the YouTube video “crazy bride wig out”, the video is harmless and is never once stated that it actually happened. The video is more or less posted for entertainment, as most you tube videos are.
However, James Frey, stated that the book was truthful, which lead the readers to believe a lie. This was a big lie because, many people bought his book and believed his story to be truthful, and were let down when they found out otherwise. Little white lies usually don’t do people any good, and it is usually best to stick to the truth.
