Isn't that all of them?
Radical idea: any news outlet that supported the 2003 Iraq war based on obviously flimsy & fabricated 'intel', costing America $2 trillion and costing Iraq 500,000 dead, shouldn't ever use the term #FakeNews until they formally apologize for journalistic malpractice.

A few things wrong with your post. First, it’s obvious now that it was flimsy and fabricated. Second, the government didn’t use fabricated news reports for intelligence. Some of those reports came from British intelligence.

It was blindingly obvious to me at the time, and to almost everyone I knew, that the Iraq war was cynical neocon adventurism that had _nothing_ to do with 9/11. The press just didn't have the guts to say so, because war = ratings, or whatever their incentives were.

Even more radical idea: the government should do likewise.

Something like the critical retrospective published by The New York Times in 2004? https://www.nytimes.com/2004/05/26/world/from-the-editors-the-times-and-iraq.html …

“News” outlets shouldn’t “support” anything. They should simply report the news.

I’d like to know what about the intel was “flimsy & fabricated.”

Almost no one in journalism or politics knows the basics about production of fissionable materials and nuclear weapons. Or Middle Eastern politics and history. You're asking them to be someone else - me.

If only they had the skills to find and interview people who did know a lot about these topics.
