Q3:

Is the power of knowledge determined by the way in which the knowledge is conveyed?

The Power of Knowledge... language shapes the way that "knowledge" is received; language can confuse, mislead, by manipulated. Real Life Scen: MMR vaccinations. The 'knowledge' of that assertion has widely been discredited (if it was even credited in the first place.) So, the weight of published news sources make knowledge more believable, or better received. Could be supported in an essay by the stats on MMR vaccinations since that "knowledge" was published.

Maths - Charts, graphs and visual tools make knowledge more digestible.
