As opposed to a misinformed public who’ve been led to believe that Donald trumps’s dad ran for mayor and ran racist tv ads per YouTube retro facts and the Washington post?

The video was newsworthy on fascistbook but not the exposure of the hoax.

Done with crappy agitprop media.

They’re calling for a ban on their own news sites? Weird. (Sarcasm off)

Democrat leaders and MSM calling for “Fake News” sites to be shut down

But McStain says Trump is the threat to freedom of speech.

Fake news:

MediaMatters
ThinkProgress
DailyKos
DemocracyNow!

Just a few that the Left wants to keep intact but in reality are hate sites filled with fake news

CNN and other fake news sites are about to go the route of Air America. Once the advertising dries up, they are doomed unless funded by Soros and his crowd.

It will also lead to a less misinformed and less disinformed citizenry.

The definition of “fake news” and the ensuing narrative doesn’t get to be defined by Democrats and MSM. They ARE “fake news.” We should be 100% entirely clear on this. THEY don’t get to define it, much less call for restrictions. They got their “restrictions” on November 8, 2016.

“Let’s shut down fake news, and everyone we disagree with or don’t want reporting what we censored is fake news.”
“We have the obligation to bash fascists, and everyone who disagrees with us is a fascist.”

I believe any media, of any type, should be able to publish anything they damn well please. True or not.

So should you.

Today the public is at the point Mark Twain was many years ago.

“If you don't read the newspaper, you're uninformed. If you read the newspaper, you're mis-informed.” -Tom

This is a very timely article considering the way that the media are accusing Trump of trying to shut them down. The fact is that those who are REALLY trying to shut down opposing voices are those on the left who are using the theme of “fake news” to preemptively shut down alternate news sources.

Pushing lies to counter the Truth seems to be the goal of those who state such opinions these days - they base their “rationales” on the false premise that freedom to lie in an “official” and protected capacity is preferable to sticking to the Truth.
