It's a good point that it's difficult to defend the position of protecting children from seeing boobies, but not fake news.
The trick, of course, is that very little of what is broadly considered fake news by various people is just biased or editorialised. Very little is actually flat out lies and fabrication presented as fact - Facebook could presumably remove this (and aren't they actually?), but few of the people shouting about fake news would notice, because what they actually want gone is on the Breitbart/Fox News/MSNBC/SNL spectrum, and that would indeed be very undesirable.
