>trying to put an unfairly negative spin
That's very hard to define and the line between a fake story and a heavily agendaed opinion piece is blurred but it reads to me as the kind of lines the people who make the rules would use.
After all, one man's news is another man's fake news: the onion is absolutely fake but we all like it because we're in on the joke. But the Chinese have reported on the onion before[0] and Iran[1]
So my point is that this is obviously a very delicate ground but I see this being abused by the incumbent media
