A red herring is a term used to describe something that is intended to be misleading or distracting from the actual issue or point. It is a rhetorical device or a literary technique often used in discussions, arguments, or storytelling to divert attention away from the main topic. The term has its origins in the practice of using a strong-smelling smoked fish, called a red herring, to divert hunting dogs from the scent they were originally following.
