If you actually care about what he stated, it's worth listening to more than just a few cherrypicked seconds that distort the intent of the statement.
Here's the source video, starting at the point that leads up to the statement: Youtube
What he's describing is that through human history, groups of people have organized around stories in order to form solidarity (for survival). And, competing groups of people with conflicting stories all dismiss the stories of the other.
He wasn't flat-out saying that Jesus is fake news. He's saying that many groups of people (e.g. Jews, Muslims, Hindus.. everyone but Christians) think that Jesus as the son of God is "fake news." Just like Christians think that the essential stories of Islam, Hinduism, etc. aren't correct.
It's worth listening through 29:30 in the video, where he describes in an interesting way how corporations and governments are just stories too.

Providing a perspective and rationale as to why certain groups believe in a certain thing is equivalent to denying the validity of that particular thing. The outcome is the same in either case.

Perhaps we should ask Yuval Harari, since he's a self-professing Jew, what the qualifiers are for verifying the TRUE Messiah?
His Jewish identity and statement that certain beliefs are formed due to this nature of solidarity of survival within humans is a self-refuting one because Judaism, in itself is a religion, with beliefs that are incompatible with other religions. So then what makes Judaism 'correct'? His arguments would hold more weight if he were a self-professing atheist or agnostic. Otherwise, as Ravi Zacharias would put it, Yuval's arguments are as solid as "having his feet firmly planted in mid-air."
