Clinton pushed the same narrative her first speech after losing, and the Wikileaks show her talking with Merkel. I think there's a group of world leaders that get together and decide to push the same story at the same time. There was a real problem with clickbait sites that generated entirely fake stories. But let's be honest: Politicians aren't going to let a term with such rhetorical kick like "fake news" be used to narrowly target a few rogue clickbait farms in Algeria. Once they've convinced people there's a problem, they'll use the term much more broadly whenever it benefits them. This is no different than using "national security" as a pretense for passing a surveillance law. "Never let a good crisis go to waste" and all.
