Go away loathsome creature.

Conflating “talk radio” and “fake news” is both wrong and a very pernicious activity. One is not necessarily correlated with the other.

Fake news has many sources, and in another era it would have been called “disinformation” or “agitprop”, seizing some actual occurrence, then spinning up a totally wrong interpretation of what was supposed to have happened.

One glaring example was the confrontation between Michael Brown and police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, Missouri. The false narrative was that Brown had turned, with hands raised, about to surrender to Officer Wilson.

In fact, Brown was making a rush, in the face of gunfire, to try to tackle and overcome the officer, with whom he had only moments before been engaged in a struggle over possession of Officer Wilson’s handgun, then Brown had turned and attempted to flee, only turning around when Officer Wilson demanded he stop, at the point of the gun so recently fought over. Brown had no intention of surrendering.

And paid the price for disobedience to a lawful order.
