What is Your Opinion on "Fake News"?

Is it real, as in is it really fake as Trump says? Some is, depending upon the source. The National Enquirer comes to mind for fake news.

From what I can read and research, it's not fake, it's more that it is news he doesn't like, or that is inconvenient for him.

True, sometimes, infrequently though, reported news is wrong, even fraudulently wrong; but mostly when a major news source finds they have printed incorrect information, they correct it.

What are your thoughts?

in 2004 Faux News won their legal battle and were allowed to make up shit and call it news, they are the prime source of fake news. Remember when Americans used to laugh at the USSR for having the news controlled by the Kremlin? Guess who has government controlled "news" now

@lorne13 If you are talking about the lies/misinformation and diversion spewed forth from the current U.S. White House, then yep, it's Donald and pals who have taken the lead.
