Below are the winners of the 2017 Fake News Awards:

1. The New York Times’ Paul Krugman claimed on the day of President Trump’s historic, landslide victory that the economy would never recover.

Probably should have an award.
Maybe a framed picture of Truman holding up the Chicago Tribune.
Maybe it could be called a “Fakey”

Hope he announces that the 10,000 indictments were opened at 9 A.M. this morning. All those being detained are being shipped to Gitmo to stand trial in front of a military tribunal.

I hope when he does the State of the Union address, he doesnt give the press a copy of the speech ahead of time like they usually do. Those Aholes can wait like the rest of us.

The insult to injury would be if he’s making money off the dramatic stockmarket rise.

I LOVE #1! Krugman. Nobel Prize winning economist. I think Miss Cleo has a better winning percentage when it comes to predictions that Krugman!

He’s SO WRONG, SO OFTEN!!!

The fact that Krugman is still employed by the Slimes speaks volumes.

There's no surprise here. Remember, the Slimes has a long history of killing stories of genocide, so Krugman is nothing. Not compared to the stories not just hiding the forced, mass starvation in the Ukraine, but knowingly publishing lies written by Walter Duranty, for which he won a Pulitzer. Or the Slimes spiking stories in the 1930s and 1940s, reporting on the Holocaust.

Krugman isn't even a blip on the screen compared to the collusion with genocidal leaders with which the Slimes has participated.

You know, for those who have not been paying attention, like CNN and all the libturds, they might be shocked at all the REAL stuff that has REALLY been going on.

"(Insert squishy libturd name here) have you looked at our 401K lately?"

"Sort of."

"Do you know why it has been going up so much lately?"

"Sort of."

None of the other choices would have called out the MSM like this.

I guess that's a moot point, because none of the others would have won anyway.

Winning!

Not on excerpt-only list. You can post your clickbait here.

*********

The president listed about 12 stories as winning the Fake News Awards for 2017.

UPDATE — HERE IS THE LIST…..

2017 was a year of unrelenting bias, unfair news coverage, and even downright fake news. Studies have shown that over 90% of the media’s coverage of President Trump is negative.

Below are the winners of the 2017 Fake News Awards:

1. The New York Times’ Paul Krugman claimed on the day of President Trump’s historic, landslide victory that the economy would never recover.

2. ABC News’ Brian Ross CHOKES and sends markets in a downward spiral with false report.

3. CNN FALSELY reported that candidate Donald Trump and his son Donald J. Trump, Jr. had access to hacked documents from WikiLeaks.

4. TIME FALSELY reported that President Trump removed a bust of Martin Luther King, Jr. from the Oval Office.

5. Washington Post FALSELY reported the President’s massive sold-out rally in Pensacola, Florida was empty. Dishonest reporter showed picture of empty arena HOURS before crowd started pouring in.

6. CNN FALSELY edited a video to make it appear President Trump defiantly overfed fish during a visit with the Japanese prime minister. Japanese prime minister actually led the way with the feeding.

7. CNN FALSELY reported about Anthony Scaramucci’s meeting with a Russian, but retracted it due to a “significant breakdown in process.”

8. Newsweek FALSELY reported that Polish First Lady Agata Kornhauser-Duda did not shake President Trump’s hand.

9. CNN FALSELY reported that former FBI Director James Comey would dispute President Trump’s claim that he was told he is not under investigation.

10. The New York Times FALSELY claimed on the front page that the Trump administration had hidden a climate report.

11. And last, but not least: “RUSSIA COLLUSION!” Russian collusion is perhaps the greatest hoax perpetrated on the American people. THERE IS NO COLLUSION!

While the media spent 90% of the time focused on negative coverage or fake news, the President has been getting results:

1. The economy has created nearly 2 million jobs and gained over $8 trillion in wealth since the President’s inauguration.

2. African Americans and Hispanics are enjoying the lowest unemployment rate in recorded history.

3. The President signed historic tax cuts and relief for hardworking Americans not seen since President Reagan.

4. President Trump’s plan to cut regulations has exceeded “2 out for every 1 in” mandate, issuing 22 deregulatory actions for every one new regulatory action.

5. The President has unleashed an American energy boom by ending Obama-era regulations, approving the Keystone pipeline, auctioning off millions of new acres for energy exploration, and opening up ANWR.

6. ISIS is in retreat, having been crushed in Iraq and Syria.

7. President Trump followed through on his promise to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of the State of Israel and instructed the State Department to begin to relocate the Embassy.

8. With President Trump’s encouragement, more member nations are paying their fair share for the common defense in the NATO alliance.

9. Signed the Veterans Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Act to allow senior officials in the VA to fire failing employees and establishes safeguards to protect whistleblowers.

10. President Trump kept his promise and appointed Associate Justice Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court.

“Can the president play these fools or can he?”

Yup. There’s more than one way for him to get HIS message to the citizens who otherwise wouldn’t hear. Twitter has worked well for him. Now teasing the public with these Awards gives him even more opportunity to share his accomplishments.

As usual the Left will hyperventilate but they can not refute ONE of those claims.
