Certainly you realize that there were a lot of fake news stories floating around social media right?
Yes, because most people on social media have zero idea how to critically analyze information. The vast majority of "fake news" I saw on my feed were from liberals. And it wasn't even close.
Not to mention the "legitimate" media exploits this same lack of critical political analysis in the masses all the time with slanted reporting and omission of context, facts, counter arguments, etc.
It's a thought up scapegoat for why the left is losing traction. Nothing more.
