‘Perversion of Truth’: Fox News Contributor Raymond Arroyo on Culture’s Most Dire Issues

Author and Fox News contributor Raymond Arroyo recently decried some of the most problematic realities he sees in today’s culture, lamenting the “perversion of truth.”“One of the things that troubles me is, we’re not listening to each other any longer,” he said. 

“Everyone’s in silos.” Arroyo, whose latest book for the whole family, “The Unexpected Light of Thomas Alva Edison,” takes a look at one of history’s most prolific inventors, reflected on days past when Americans united around music, humor, entertainment — and even the news. “Everyone, even though they didn’t all agree, they agreed that we could get information and share moments and space together,” he said, juxtaposing that against today’s divisive backdrop. “There are no focal points in the culture, and I think that needs to be restored.”

Outside of sports, he said there aren’t many rallying points and called the lack of unifying factors in American culture a “huge problem.” Meanwhile, he also decried the “perversion of truth” raging in today’s society. “Jesus, certainly in this time of year, reminds us of the heavy cost of embodying the truth, representing the truth, and broadcasting the truth,” Arroyo said. “It’s your job, it’s your task. All of us, as human beings, it’s what we’re called to do.”

He continued, “The more we’re willing to do that and risk our name and our reputation and our standing to do so, the better society will be.” Arroyo also reflected on his personal mission to point people back to history to glean positive, uplifting, and educational lessons. 

He said his latest book “The Unexpected Light of Thomas Alva Edison” was birthed one day when he found himself reading about Edison and discovered something that sparked a deep intrigue.
