Trivial
The earliest use of the word in English was early 15th century.
A separate borrowing in the academic sense "of the trivium" (first three liberal arts - grammar, rhetoric, and logic);
from Medieval Latin use of trivialis, in the sense of "of the first three liberal arts."
for sense evolution to "pertaining to useless information."
In other words, listen closely to the grammar, rhetoric, and logic that you hear from these sources.
Then, you will be able to undoubtedly tell the truth from a lie.
