The fake news fake story

The Washington Post article on fake news is dissected in this article.
1. Facebook and others are considering ways to
Halt the spread of "fake news". I call it censorship.
2. Post asserted that Russians planted fake news to influence the election in Trumps favor.
Including stories on her health. We all saw her stumbling and being carried into her SUV. Post wants us not to believe our lying eyes or our "fake vision".
3. Ron Paul's web site was a vessel for Russian propaganda?
4. Obama states HRC lost because FOX News
Is on all the TV in bars and pubs and restaurants
Across middle America. I say that's how a free market works you f---ing idiot, owners cater to customers.
5. Where there is smoke there is fire. People have been migrating to alternative news organizations mostly due to biased reporting
by more traditional news.
6.The gorgon hag in leaked emails was instructing the media during the campaign.
Her news minions feed her debate questions.
I say" fake debate monitors"!

    I know your son was a great champion of freedom of the press and free speach,
    Taking and fighting for his right to publish biographies. A Nobel cause and a great legacy!
    A hero in my book. Thanks Todd.

    I think that the last election shows that people are more discerning than they have been in the past. Even those who voted for Hillary admit to media and social media bias and lies. They voted out of blind loyalty to the party.

    Everybody should be free to say anything. There is redress for slander, etc. Now that social media has changed the way people communicate, people will choose what they want to believe, just as they always have.

    Nothing in the lamestream has any basis in reality...just like progressives and liberals...they just make it up as they go.

    Makes one wonder, who ties their shoe laces.

    I have not seen those but I have heard reference to pizza-gate. can you post a link? I have heard of some horrific actions in Haiti and I saw a young Haitian woman activist on you tube practically begging for Americans to vote Trump. She described Clinton Foundation and UN atrocities
    Following the Earth Quake and the grab of Gold mining rights the first in 50 years offered to Tony Rodham's mining concern(caugh). Then Another murder of a young women investigator of human trafficking in Haiti about 10 days ago who according to her friends had just found the smoking gun of the CF's involvement in sex trafficking. I don't know if the story is fake but her death is sure real to her family as my heart goes out to them.

    It is one thing to accuse and another to prove. These days anyone can be labeled just about anything to suit the case.

    This is in response to information issued by WikiLeaks involving a couple pizza joints.

    Do you know what I mean? Have you read the emails? Maybe you should...

    I think the author makes his points quite well. The media deserves the free market failure they are experiencing.
    Note however that the author somehow represents the Council for the National Interest. Well that's a propaganda mouthful isn't it?
    The wiki page about them appears to accuse them of be anti-zionist. Is that bad? Is that good?
    Wikipedia is becoming almost as bad as the mainstream media.

    Until the rise of social media, the "mainstream" media was behaving much the same way and getting away with it. Now they're being called out whenever they try to mislead the public.

    And if the "mainstream" social media try to censor alternative points of view, I expect that alternative social media will quickly rise to challenge the suppressors.
