It seems like anything that anyone reports on him is "fake". This stuff is so tired now. I love the guy and think he can do some great things but I wish he'd put aside the petty bullshite once and for all.

It is much more than just news on Trump.

It's the media far more than it's Trump.

I see the resistance movement has successfully worked on you. This is exactly what they want.

Not me. As soon as you take your foot off their necks, they'll be at it again. The fakes news has slowly invaded our psyches over the past 10 years. The MSM has done an outstanding job on this. It's going to take a long time for the general public to realize how much arbitrary crap is being spewed out there for the sole purpose of drama and "selling newspapers". Tired of hearing about the way things "could be", instead of the way things are. So much conjecture and innuendo. The gullibility of the average American and their failure to realize how the MSM has betrayed their trust in accurately reporting the news is the driving force behind fake news.

America has really been dumbed-down... way moe than we might realize.

Trump's constant claim of "fake news" is a strategy. From here on out, all negative news about Trump will be called "fake news" and Trumpkins will fall in line like sheep.

If anything positive comes out, like job reports, you won't hear a peep about "fake news."

Or if Trump needs a news source to back up his claims, re: wiretapping.

Are the media full of shite? Sometimes. But I'm not about to let Trump decide which is fake and which is real. That's exactly what he wants.

If you can't see that the media is nothing more than globalist propoganda then idk what to do for you.

Definitely a strategy.

Did you know John McCain has a mistress and Mitt Romney doesn't pay taxes?

Buck up King,
You'll survive.
I've been tired of the leftist biased MSM for decades!
Yes, 99.9999% of reports about him are fake.
Yes, it can get tiring.
Love is a personal choice. I just like him a lot.
Yes he has great potential including destruction of the libtard MSM.
The biased reporting and lack there off is not "petty bull shite". It's very destructive bull shite. Trump is doing pretty good against them so far.

I think #FAKENEWS is an accurate term for what we're seeing. Exhibit A:

1) Day 1 of Trump's Presidency: "Donald Trump has removed the bust of Martin Luther King from the Oval Office."

2) Day 100 of the Obama Presidency: "Mr. President, what has enthralled you the most about being President?"

#FAKENEWS

How the hell does that Mallard Filmore strip garner downvotes? We really have people here who don't want the media doing their job.

Insane.

In the same week, two of what would have been the largest political scandals in US history - Trump's allegedly collusion with the Russians and Obama's wiretapping a political oppponent - were thoroughly debunked. Yet each side only wants to hold the other accountable.

American journalism is a joke but it's sunk this low because we've allowed it.

Well, we have all been lied to for decades. The boil is now fully exposed and is about to get lanced.

Agreed. But the shamelessness of the MSM for trying to defend it has spiked in recent years. They get pissed-off when we don't swallow it - hook, line and sinker...

Agee with other posters, if you cant see that ALL NEWS is just propaganda, I feel for you

It effects who they hire
It effects the slant they do on news stories
It effects the stories they choose not to run
It effects the adjectives and adverbs they use in stories
It effects the sources they recruit, and may or may not vet

They report only to influence what stance they want you to take. If news was just news, then there is no way you could have Fox and MSNBC exist in the same plane

We almost think alike, except I find Trump offensive. Don't like him at all. But at least we have common ground.
