'''''Telling the Truth''''' is
a book in which [[Lynne Cheney]] "... considers a particular aspect of [[relativism]] and the damage it has done: so-called [[multiculturalism]] in primary and secondary education; [[political correctness]] in the universities; [[deconstructionism]] in the scholarship of the humanities; [[radical feminist]] legal theory in legal education and [[jurisprudence]]; politicized exaggeration and falsification in art, [[popular culture]], and [[psychotherapy]]; and so-called new (i.e., politically slanted) news in the mainstream press. Although herself a Republican conservative, Cheney avoids [[partisanship]] in her presentation." <ref>http://www.amazon.com/Telling-Truth-Lynne-V-Cheney/dp/0684825341/ref=pd_bbs_sr_7/103-4840651-8436636?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1174945780&sr=8-7</ref>

*Challenging the rhetoric of multiculturalism, radical feminism, critical race theory, and other popular trends, Lynne Cheney calls for the restoration of truth and reason to a central place in our lives. In Telling the Truth, Cheney gives us a detailed examination of American cultural and political institutions, journalism, and education. She shows how a disdain for objective truth and principles has created a moral and intellectual crisis that threatens the foundation of America's legal, political, and social order. [ibid]
