True, i remember it well.

The phrase Fake News was started by the actual Fake News, to explain why people rejected Hitlery.
When people heard it, the truth in it resonated the way truth always does.

It was then adopted on mass by the public but redirected right back at them.

I think thats a big part of why they hate it so much, i know its why i love repeating it so.

The media is now, in keeping with their Orwellian instincts, trying to make it a taboo phrase. As it has done with so many other words/phrases that convey truth.

I’m glad you posted that, before it’s sent down the memory hole. Trump appropriated the phrase, and turned it against the opposition. (A football analogy is almost too easy.)
