Emergency preparedness takes on a different meaning when a shopping list arrives labelled as a White House warning. Nathan Radke follows the claim toward its source, offering a way to separate a recommendation from the authority attached to it.

Thirty days of food and water is the headline. Familiar advice from other countries appears to back it up. But the dates on those policies matter as much as their contents, and Canada's own campaign supplies a revealing detail.

There is also a government zombie-survival campaign that Nathan says really happened, complete with a graphic novel. That leaves a more interesting question than whether every strange-sounding claim is false: what distinguishes a publicity idea from a warning about something imminent?

Topics: emergency preparedness, misinformation, source checking, zombie preparedness, public trust
