Remedial readers at the secondary level are often caught in a cycle of failure.
Irrelevant associations cause readers to ignore portions of a text or pay an inordinate amount of attention to others, so that relationships among statements are distorted and meaning is misconstrued.
When a reader finds out that others read a text differently, the reader may be helped to realize that his or her interpretation was limited by a subjective view.

Reader's Digest lays out the case that "circumstantial evidence suggests [the video] was probably faked." But that hasn't stop the images from being immortalized throughout the Muslim world -- see the Egyptian postage stamp pictured here, and a fuller account of the al-Dura affair in the Atlantic Monthly article from 6/03: 'Who Shot Mohammed al-Dura?'
One video that circumstantial evidence suggests was probably faked became an instrumental tool in continuing to thwart any lingering chance for an Israeli-Palestinian peace, and has possibly contributed to hundreds of deaths in the last four years.
