Since it is essentially consensus based, truth at times can seem to be a bit of a moving target once examine your subject closely enough over a long enough time horizon. Perhaps instead of trying to determine whether some information meets the criteria of being objectively true, you can assess the information based on its value - i.e. is this information useful? Can society make productive use of this information to coordinate and make better decisions? If yes, it can work its way into consensus and earn the time-tested status of truth.
