Won't be reported by CNN, so this will be viewed as "fake news."

The media started the entire fake news phenomenon to shut down their alternative media rivals that were kicking their arse in the market.

It has been turned on them, because it was a ridiculous concept to begin with, and now they want it to be gone.

Lesson: Don't play fast and loose with the facts, or shade everything to your side, and then call other people fake news. It will likely blow up in your face.

It's not the same, Chris. You know how we can tell? You said the words fake news, but you won't say the N-word. Well, not on record, amiright?

What? No they didn't. Investigative reporters traced fake news stories posted on Facebook to Macedonia, of all places. A bunch of damn teenagers in Macedonia were making up news stories, posting them on Facebook and making bank on the ad revenue. It was legitimate thing until idiots started labeling any article they didn't agree with fake news.

That may be true, but you know exactly why the whole "fake news" thing became a meme in this election, pushed hard by CNN. They thought they would get to decide what "fake news" meant.

Maybe they should be better at their jobs if they don't want to be called fake news

Just an idea

Well if CNN ever hires a journalist, let us know.

In meantime go back to acting on-air with a script interviewing crisis actors during false flags and fake protests.

Business Insider/Podesta speech yd

John Podesta: Fake news is 'undermining our democracy'


quote:

SAN FRANCISCO — Fake news is "undermining our democracy," but it's something people may not notice if they get their news from the mainstream media, former Clinton campaign chair John Podesta warned on Wednesday.

"It’s sinister, and it’s a vile stream that runs under the ground and it begins to have an effect and takes its toll," Podesta said on-stage at the NewCo Shift Forum.

An Executive Conference on Capitalism at a Crossroads

FEBRUARY 6-8, 2017 ST. REGIS HOTEL SAN FRANCISCO



quote:

"All that stuff exists, you don’t see it, you don’t feel it if you’re largely living in reality in a mainstream media," Podesta said. (Since the election, the Trump administration has also used the term "fake news" to attack the mainstream media, especially CNN.)


quote:

Since the election, companies like Facebook and Google have pledged to crack down on the spread of fake news. This week, Facebook said it would partner with leading French media outlets to tackle the fake news spreading on its platform ahead of the elections in France, which will happen in April and May.

Podesta applauded media companies for beginning to acknowledge their responsibility — something Mark Zuckerberg hesitated to do at first after the election — but said it's still a serious threat that needs to be addressed.

"It's undermining our democracy," Podesta said. "I don’t know what technical fix I’m asking for, but I think the companies need to take it seriously."


Looks like the fake news campaign is starting up again (coinciding with Session's confirmation)

#fakeevidence (planted by Russia) will be up next....

I hope it's that offensive.

Big difference though between being born black and choosing to be a shitty journalist.
