A story can be both true and untrue if it's a blend of facts and imagination. Maybe it starts with a real incident but then takes fictional turns. Or, it might be told differently by different people, making some parts seem true and others not.
Well, in some cases, a story might seem true to one person but untrue to another based on their perspectives and knowledge.
It's quite rare. Usually, a story is either true or untrue. But in some complex fictional works like Black Sails, there can be elements that blur the lines.
It's possible in some cases. Sometimes a story might have elements that are based on real events but also have fictional parts added for dramatic effect.
Fiction is not true. It's made up by the author's imagination and creativity.
It depends. Sometimes stories labeled as such might draw inspiration from real events but have fictional elements added for narrative purposes.
Well, sometimes it's the element of coincidence. In real life, there can be a series of coincidences that seem almost scripted. Like in a story where two long - lost relatives end up in the same place at the same time under very strange circumstances. And when these events are part of a larger narrative that has real - world implications, like a family reunion that leads to the discovery of a long - hidden family secret, it makes the story both unbelievable and firmly rooted in reality.
Some true stories involve a combination of rare circumstances. For example, in some historical events, a series of unlikely events happen one after another. The probability of such a chain of events occurring seems very low, making the story unbelievable. But it did happen in reality, like certain battles in history where the underdog won due to a sequence of fortunate events for them.
Yes. In fact, many traditional stories are both tales and true. For instance, the story of how a particular community was founded may be told as a tale, with elements of legend and folklore, but it can also be based on real historical events.
It's hard to say for sure. The Sixers' management would need to consider various aspects such as the impact on the team's image, public opinion, and any internal agreements before making a decision, even if the story turns out to be false.
It's unlikely. Usually, teams make such decisions based on valid and confirmed information. If the story is untrue, there might not be a basis for firing him.
