    It is, also seeing the BBC trying to establish themselves as the ministry of truth like this.
    Indeed...

      To put it in terms you might be able to understand. You agree with fake news. I disagree with it.

      Moron in denial.

      In other news, AIDS didn't originate in monkeyes, but in American labs, deliberately designed to target homosexuals.
      The term 'fake news' was invented by the MSM to discredit the information Trump used against Hillary (Wikileaks etc) to win in 2016. That's why he uses it so much - bashing them with their own term. Some of it probably was fake (pizzagate) but a lot of it true (Clinton foundation, pay-to-play, email server etc).

      The MSM cried 'fake news' after he got elected along with 'Russia Russia Russia!' to try and discredit the election result. Now every time they publish something untrue he hits them over the head with it.

      Even before 2016 trust in MSM was on the decline for good reason (eg. Iraq WMDs) - and there's nuffin you can do abaht it :middlefinger:

        Right, and Hillary Clinton will soon be behind bars for a very long time, because it wasn't fake news.

          Lets see how many more convictions based on "fake" evidence the Muller probe will achieve.

              So basically news that you disagree with = fake news.
              BBC is getting dumber ... I mean smarter.

                    Some of the “published” emails were doctored for maximum effect.

                    So yes, they do publish false info, which isn’t surprising given they are GRU/SVR front, a modern version of Pravda for foreign audiences

                    MSM are guilty of republishing and amplyifing all this tulip - that’s the only reason it worked, the term “fake news” is exclusively Trumps invention who calls black white, which is said because there are actually plenty of fake news supporting him, but the term is thoroughly discredited to be used in any other context but “the truth I don’t like”

                      Are you referring to Guccifer 2.0? Did they prove he was GRU or is that still part of the (unproven) Mueller thing? I remember at the time Guccifer 2.0 saying he was actually a Ukrainian hacker who was into all the Alex Jones type conspiracy stuff and wanted to destroy HRC, also said he didn't want Russia taking credit for his hack...

                      Although MSM are publishing your version as fact and other side MSM are publishing his version as fact.

                      Shame no one knows who to believe anymore... Except the BBC of course and AtW obviously
