Olympiad: check the claim and spot the trick ★★★, sentence 17
Yard signs show what some households think, not who will win, because most people never put one up; calling a true story "fake news" because you dislike it does not make it false.
Who acts: Yard signs, households, most people, you · What happens: show, think, not win, not put up, call, dislike · To what, where: one, true story, news · Speech: someone speaks here
