The waters are further muddied by the fact that nobody can agree on a definition of "fake news." It's meaningless, sensational claims all the way down.

- smsm42 8y agoI suspect if we had a workable definition finding any evidence it has had any influence would become even harder.
- kelnos 8y agoSure we do: fake news is the dissemination of incorrect information purporting to be the truth (and not someone's opinion).
- smsm42 8y agoThat's "lying" (if intentional) or "being mistaken" (if sincere). People do it all the time since speech was invented (and probably before that too - I've read about some animals being capable of lying).
