  1. SAMPLE ARTICLE
    It shocked the world when the Titanic sank in 1912. At the time, human innovation's limits were brutally portrayed with the destruction of such a technically advanced ship. A conspiracy theory has crept up online, most recently on Reddit, asking the question: Was it actually the Titanic that sank?

    Everyone agrees on one fact: That a ship actually did sink in the icy waters of the North Atlantic on April 15, 1912, and approximately 1,500 passengers aboard that ship had tragically died. However, the conspiracy merely suggests that the ship was not actually the famed technical marvel that the ship’s parent company, the White Star Line, had promised, but that the White Star Line had swapped ships for the voyage from Southampton to New York and that the ship billed as the top-of-the-line Titanic was in fact an older ship, called the Olympic.

    Topping the conspiracy theory is the suggestion that, the entire crash was an insurance scam which had horribly gone wrong.

Brave New World- Aldous Huxley

“I shall begin at the beginning,” said the D.H.C. and the more zealous students recorded his intention in their notebooks: Begin at the beginning. “These,” he waved his hand, “are the incubators.” And opening an insulated door he showed them racks upon racks of numbered test-tubes. “The week’s supply of ova. Kept,” he explained, “at blood heat; whereas the male gametes,” and here he opened another door, “they have to be kept at thirty- five instead of thirty-seven. Full blood heat sterilizes.” Rams wrapped in theremogene beget no lambs. Still leaning against the incubators he gave them, while the pencils scurried illegibly across the pages, a brief description of the modern fertilizing process; spoke first, of course, of its surgical introduction- “the operation undergone voluntarily for the good of Society, not to mention the fact that it carries a bonus amounting to six months’ salary” ; continued with some account of the technique for preserving the excised ovary alive and acti

RIDDLE SOLUTION

This part of the post gives the answer away. The proposed reason for the common difficulty in solving this riddle is implicit bias. Essentially, through social conditioning, our minds have created a certain default image of what constitutes a doctor. This particular riddle exposes that bias. The Kirwan Institute at Ohio State University defines implicit bias as “the attitudes or stereotypes that affect our understanding, actions, and decisions in an unconscious manner. These biases, which encompass both favorable and unfavorable assessments, are activated involuntarily and without an individual’s awareness or intentional control.” While the presence of biases is quite normal, these unconscious calculations can cause us to make faulty evaluations. Since these biases exist outside of our conscious awareness, they’re often challenging to address. Left unchecked, however, they can perpetuate certain toxic, stereotypical attitudes about the world around us. You are here, so the riddle did
