Good questions. The only weapons we haven to use against the left wing mediots are:

1. Boycott them by not buying their printed products or electronic products.

2. Refuse to be addicted to click bait whenever the left wing posts fake news or a lie about our president or his people.

What really powers the media’s fake news scandal machine.
Fake news is profitable.

The New York Times hit piece on the Comey memo earned the paper its most concurrent readers per second. Pretty good for a piece about a piece of paper that the leftist paper had never even seen and which was, supposedly, described to it by one of Comey’s associates.

But that didn’t stop it from racking up over 6 million views.

Media fake news isn’t just an agenda. It’s enormously profitable. Hit pieces powered by anonymous sources bring in over 100,000 readers in an age when live is king. For individual reporters, finding a source, real or fake, that can back up the left’s Trump conspiracy theories can put them on the map.

Right, the higher the ratings, the readership, the subscriptions, the more traffic, views, clicks and links they get, the more profitable.

But it’s not only the advertising sponsors that pay, it’s also the political sponsors. The left directly funds the fake news, since the MSM is the left’s very own propaganda machine.
