In this country, the GOP and Trump are the great beneficiaries of fake news. Accordingly, they, like you, are the ones twisting the argument 180 degrees by calling actual news unfavorable to Trump fake while dismissing the existence of the fake news that the GOP and its minions sling each and every day on talk radio, Breitbart, InfoWars, etc and broadcast via Twitter by Trump and his staff. You've bought into this silly meme hook, line and sinker. Try as you might, nobody else here is buying the line of shit you're selling. You sound like a mindless dittohead.

That's exactly what this is about, and thank you for confirming it. Obama alluded to it a few weeks ago suggesting there should be a "filter" on the news. Now here comes Merkel and company with an election coming up, and she wants a filter as well. How quaint.
Fake news is the left's latest attempt at censorship. Period. Take a news story that the left doesn't like and simply label it fake news. Someone in the press has an unflattering story? Label them a purveyor of fake news. Who gets to decide what fake news is? Of course, our friends on the left. Who are the "approved sources" of non fake news? Of course the same news sources that are routinely in the tank for the left. Lovely.
