Why would they be the ones to enlighten you? It's the battle cry of the right, maybe they should be the ones explaining it to everyone.

Libertarians over here, just

"Fake News" is the ultimate scapegoat of the left to cover up their awful prediction that Queen Hillary would coast into the White House.

Most libs have Stockholm syndrome.

They have been brainwashed for a long time.

You do know that it started on the left as a way to curb right leaning news sources...

And then it completely knocked them in the balls when Trump started using it to attack them and throwing it back in their face.

"Fake News" is a term that trump popularized , . It was used as defense mechanism to combat media reports that portrayed him negatively and his low approval rating.

eta: apparently Buzzfeed said this term first, i dont read that trash. However it is trumps bread and butter now tho

Oh? Because I have heard the phrase "liberal media" LONG before the invention of Fox News. It may not have been the exact phrase "fake news", but it was certainly the intent to imply it was fake.
