        DNC proxies still looking for any distraction from the mess they made promoting HRC.

        @perrymetzger It’s a problem to be managed, not solved. And you’re not helping with this kind of rhetoric.

        NYT imperfect but tries to get it right. “Fake news” is simply made up. Don’t erase that distinction.

        I'm not convinced of that. See their lack of contrition after Judith Miller, for example.

        You’re comparing the worst behavior of one entity with the median behavior of another.

        Judith Miller's actions partially responsible for about a million deaths. That's not enough to push the average?

        The real "fake news" problem is about filter bubbles and peer pressure on social media. MSM trustworthiness is a separate issue.

        I agree. Anything can be labeled 'fake news' to serve an agenda.

        Abuse of labels isn't the point. When you throw separate problems into the same bag, you lose the ability to fix them.

        Well, abuse of labels is the point. When the term 'fake news' is used frivolously, real fake news goes unchecked.
