Another fine example of liberals accusing others of what they are themselves doing. This confuses the limited info people and deflects much of the criticism that comes at the libs. When completely outed, it is much easier to say, “Hey! Everyone does it!” and get away with it.

Fake news is a euphemism for lying, dishonesty, and flat out propaganda.

I think that article gets to the root of the problem, which is systematic selective biased journalism.

just like everything else recently... this will come back to bite liberals on the butt.

Trump will decide which news sites are “fake” and which are real. Trump will fill the press pool slots with all these supposedly “fake” news sites, while banning the self proclaimed “real” news sites... and he will do it by proclaiming... THEM FAKE and unworthy of being present!

ROFL!

I see two fake-news usages on the left.
One is the same was FReepers understand to be fake news. A story that is false, a lie.

But the left has another usage. Stories that originate in the main-stream media are by definition “news”. That is true regardless of whether they are true or false.

But in the left’s definition, stories that originate outside the main-stream media are not “news” and therefore are fake news.

So when Trump or Bannon or you tweet something, or put something on FR it is not news because we are not the legit news media.

But if some Hollywood celebrity tweets something, it is “news” because that celebrity is part of the legit news media, even though it is the entertainment news media.

In short an argument from authority. It is news if Chuck Todd says it is news.

More projection from the left. The fake news comes from their side. How do I know this? By looking at all the shocked lefty faces on election night. They were all so sure Hillary had it in the bag because all the leftist propaganda said so despite the prima fascia evidence to the contrary, hence fake news. Therefore case closed.
