The nature establishing their lies is so much quicker now for fake news.
The international coverage of almost all mainstream media is to parrot the lies and be a mouthpiece of the national security state. The lies they do regarding Iraqi WMDs, Syria Chemical attacks, Russiagate, Gulf of Tonkin, Bolivia coup etc...
This is one of my favorite example of fake news:
In the early hours of March 13, 1964, Kitty Genovese, a 28-year-old bartender, was stabbed outside the apartment building where she lived in the Kew Gardens neighborhood of Queens in New York City, New York, United States. Two weeks after the murder, The New York Times published an article erroneously claiming that 38 witnesses saw or heard the attack, and that none of them called the police or came to her aid.
Reporters at a competing news organization discovered in 1964 that the Times article was inconsistent with the facts, but they were unwilling at the time to challenge Times editor Abe Rosenthal. In 2007, an article in the American Psychologist found "no evidence for the presence of 38 witnesses, or that witnesses observed the murder, or that witnesses remained inactive". In 2016, the Times called its own reporting "flawed", stating that the original story "grossly exaggerated the number of witnesses and what they had perceived".

Luckily for fake news is that most people suffer from the Gell-Mann amnesia effect.
