Journalists Blame ‘Fake News’ For Shooting, Claim Criticism Is Now Off Limits
This is not a recent or Trump thing. I can tell you for a fact the media has been making up news since at least 1988.

The original AP article about the newspaper shooting blamed Trump within the first two sentences. After it was learned the shooter had a long term adverse relationship with the paper that connection of dots was dropped from AP reporting, but I saw no retraction.

As long as the media continues to embellish and sensationalize, misreport or create 'facts', utilize witnesses who really saw nothing, use experts that have no idea what they are talking about, use all of this to unfairly/unjustly wreck peoples lives for a story and blatantly push the agenda of the Democratic party, they are guilty of any accusation of Fake News

I have always assumed that most news sources are biased and are playing to their own agenda. This is not really new - it's simply that media channels are now becoming exposed more frequently and thoroughly.

That and their lies have become more brazen and outlandish. That happens when no one will call you out for lying.

You may say some things, but not other things. And we will decide. And it may change. And you will be punished for noncompliance.
