      a loss of confidence in the mainstream media like this should lead to some self-examination. Instead they rush to hire epistemology bouncers

      Either/or isn't useful What you are doing is what mass media does with fake news—use one problem to deny another (itself).

      I'm not suggesting it's either/or, I'm shifting emphasis to make a point that "real news" contributed to Trump in a meaningful way

      That's not what that tweet stream is doing. It's "forget fake news, look at real news". That is wrong, counterproductive.

      1-You can make all the points about real news. Literally one mention of "don't just focus on fake news" would do.

          Instead; "It was real news, not fake news" etc. etc. You believe this is good method for understanding?

          I think "fake news" has a manifestly slippery definition that no one can pin down, including you.
