most people just don't get what fake news are.

To the mainstream media fake news is political news that they disagree with. You can't stop "fake news" without sh*tting on freedom of speech.

pizza-gate is fake news and all similar news are fake too.

and more important than "fake news" are "fake news sources".

if a major newspaper makes a mistake it corrects itself or you find another take by another real newspaper.

there is no source, no correction and no responsibility for sites like infowars, prison planet, etc.....easy as that.

There is a such thing as freedom of speech and you can't shut them Infowars,Prison Planet,World Net Daily or Breitbart because you disagree with it.

i don't want to "shut" them.......(nearly impossible today, they would come back as infowars.ru as long as they never ever write anything critical of putin).... i want their readers to be aware that those sites are much less reliable even as the evil liberal-biased MSM (no definition of that word means anything without including FOX and the WSJ and the NYP and soon even Breitbart) and never correct themselves and show no responsibility at all.

you can read all those sources, just be aware that even the weakest NY daily news piece is more reliable than their "scoops".

Breitbart and Infowars are great. So was Gawker and the NY Times. Let a hundred flowers bloom, and a hundred schools of thought contend!

nyt > BB > gawker > IW

you can read all of them but ofc the NYT is the most reliable and looking for the highest standard.

being objectively better than someone else is something totally different than being objective.

this finally breaks the straw.....englishpete is a charming troll account...no offense, i like your posts.

daily caller is real news like NYP, combining a tabloid outline with solid conservative commenting.

they are lightyears beyond breitbart and the likes of IW.

imho the mainstream conservative outlets, like NYP/National Review, have helped "normalizing" fringe news through discrediting other mainstream media outlets - or through the moniker MSM itself - for decades and creating "safe spaces" for conservatives, which work as giant echo chambers, instead of just information with a soft liberal bias.

Daily Caller is run by right wing hack Tucker Carlson

1) fake news! Miss bow-tie is now a FN personality.

2) idd - still a "normal" source for information with a conservative bias. "normal" tabloid instead of propaganda. and people like matt k. lewis are really talented.
