It's a euphemism of the behavior of the media. No one means the news is 100% fake, but that there is some manipulation and bias going on.
At some point when there's enough bias it does become fake news because you can't trust the source at all.
- BubRoss 7y agoThere are two separate things. One is reporting certain things and not others or worse, trying to skew the gravity of various facts with tainted opinions from someone invested in the perception of them. Then there is literally reporting things that aren't true and are made up. Various news sources indulge in the first two, but any news source with a shred of respectibility doesn't engage in actually reporting things that are false.
