WATCH: Award-Winning Journalist Exposes the True Origin of the Term Fake News
As your "source", you use that renowned news website "stillnessinthestorm.com", which used a FAKE headline. The headline does not describe her point. She doesn't use the term, THEY did.
Good gawd, people, come on.
.
Watch the video folks:
Her argument is flawed from the very beginning. In her first example, Richard Jewell, she uses the term "wrongly reported". They were wrong. They didn't make it up.
Clearly she has an agenda, and that's a blatant example.
Do you understand the difference between being wrong and just making something up?
.
was bush wrong about WMD or did he lie? kinda depends on who you ask huh?
so what would her agenda be?
in 2014, rolling stone frat gang rape that was pretty much made up. who's fault is that now? the writer or the editor or the mag? answer? all of the above. yet this is where things started getting really lazy for journalism and people wrote based off their feelz vs facts.
this was also long before 2016 so she is just illustrating how far back being wrong can go. if you wish to discredit all else she says cause you disagree here, your loss.
but she makes a lot of valid points about fake news in the last 2 years. if you want to think she has an agenda, great. but offer up someone who has done more research into this cause if you just don't like what she says and call her fake now, isn't that the very problem she is describing and a huge contributor to it?
I made my point. The term was created in response to the websites I listed.
It appears that, in one universe, that just never happened.
That's just amazing to me, and more than a little concerning.
.
you didn't list any website that i caught other than "far right".
i would *strongly disagree* with anyone who was of the mindset that only the far right or any ONE group would engage in fake news. like i keep saying, when you let YOUR side do it, you simply ok it for the OTHER side, only that's where we seem to get mad as a society and culture. it's ok if *we* do stupid shit but if *they* do it it must be stopped.
we need to broaden our mindset and hold ourselves accountable for what we do LONG BEFORE we hold someone else accountable.
