    Live from the #BeyondFakeNews conference in Nairobi, we ask: Is fake news really such a new phenomenon? 📻 https://bbc.in/2QzsAav pic.twitter.com/iFhXox5qmR

        No. It's the drop in IQ - especially in the younger generation which has made #FakeNewsMedia a super heated stream of noxious gas - obliterating all before it, stultifying human progress... Trump is Satanic. Pure poison. Hes used the decline of human intelligence to his advantage

        The juiciest kind of gossip is the story seasoned with the most lies & sweetened with the greatest drama. Humans have gossiped since we learned to speak, so there has always been fake news perpetuated by state propaganda. This is not News. #BeyondFakeNews
