President Donald Trump is not alone in thinking media outlets spread "fake news."
More than 3-in-4 of 803 American respondents, or 77 percent, said they believe that major traditional television and newspaper media outlets report “fake news,” according to a Monmouth University poll released Monday, marking a sharp increase in distrust of those news organizations from a year ago, when 63 percent registered concerns about the spread of misinformation.
^^^Looks like more #WINNING
What is 'fake news'?
Does it matter? If 77% of people believe that the major news outlets report 'fake news' that's a REALLY bad perception for them to have since credibility is everything to them.
So it only matters what the people think over what is actually fact or not.
In other words, you, moy, are fake news.
What good are the facts if people think they are fake? Trump took on the media and won.
So you are politicizing facts. Facts are ******* facts. If the NYT said that Trump was gay with Mike Pence and everyone started believing that, it doesn't mean that that is a fact. You are bordering 1984 Orwellian status here.
Those ******* facts can be manipulated. In you're example it's a fact the NYT said that Trump was gay with Mike Pence...
CNN Headline: TRUMP IS GAY WITH MIKE PENCE
CNN Story: Sources say Trump is gay with Mike Pence. They claim that Pence was seen entering the presidential suite at 2am while Melania was in New York. This isn't the first time the two men have been together. Pence was also present at the Trump inauguration back in January of 2017.
Technically everything I just wrote is FACT. Sources would be the NYT. The fact they made claims was factual, even if the claims themselves were not. It is a fact pence was at the inauguration.
The headline is deceitful... The ******* facts are strung together to make the entire narrative seem factual as in Trump really is gay with pence (which is NOT a fact in any of this). #FAKENEWS
Exactly. The claim is not factual. I 100% agree with that, and if CNN titled their article that, then that is fake news. But your point is that it doesn't matter whether something is factual or not, as long as most people agreed with it. I brought up that example because, according to your logic, if most people agreed that Trump was gay with Pence then ot should be regarded as fact. It goes the other way too. If something is fact, it doesn't matter what the people think. Facts are facts.
Giuliani was asked about crime at the RNC, where he was confronted with the FACT that crime is down in America under Obama. He responded by saying that PEOPLE THINK THAT IT ISN'T. He basically was arguing that because the people FEEL like they are not as safe, the country isn't safe. Which is bullshit because, statistically, factually, the country is safer. If FOX made an article saying that PEOPLE ARE NOT SAFE UNDER OBAMA, that is fake news too.
