Which is it? Is "fake news" a dangerous sentiment, or do journalists actually get the facts wrong more often than they get them right?
Do journalists try to get the facts correct? When they get them wrong, do they issue retractions? Or do they not?
Do you think you can draw an equivalency between their accuracy and the President's relationship with the truth?
This is not the same as saying "TV is bad for you, mmkay?" This is about actual journalism, which may take place in newspapers or on television.
You're treading on dangerous false equivalency here. I get that it's hip to say "the mainstream media gets it wrong all the time, amirite" in lieu of having an actual nuanced opinion, but I certainly don't think it's remotely accurate.
