I will wait until someone proves that in the MSM there actually is FAKE NEWS, not simply unpleasant commentary or news that someone does not like.

Haven't heard anything in that regard.

ANYTHING having to do with the military and military plans...is "fake news".

And it's deliberate. They DO NOT publish future operations for everyone to see. In fact they publish MISINFORMATION regularly.

Oh for whatever sakes...this is a stupid post as I have seen.

Of course military news is screened and sensitive information is withhold.

Are you not aware that our President calls anything negative about him or his family as FAKE NEWS and simply brushes it off as such. NEVER EVER supplying any back up.

And you must be aware that his followers buy into that garbage hook line and sinker. That is why the President is never obliged or feels as if he needs to substantiate things because you people believe every word and every lie that comes out of his mouth.

Interesting

"President Trump tweeted Monday morning that former FBI Director James Comey “leaked CLASSIFIED INFORMATION” when he provided the New York Times with information about his meetings with the president.

There’s no evidence that is true. The president’s tweet apparently came from a segment on Fox & Friends, which was a misleading interpretation of a report from the Hill newspaper on the contents of Comey’s memos."


Fox & Friends sent a misleading tweet. Then Trump accused James Comey of a crime. - Vox (https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/7/10/15946878/trump-comey-twitter-leak-classified-fox-and-friends)

Someone has to stand up for truth........Fox is the single largest distributor of fake news and "gossip" ever to exist.

"Back when regular people watched “Fox & Friends,” it was bad enough to warrant killing the show. Back in those pre-Trump-presidency days, the program merely distorted the news in ways that reflected poorly on President Barack Obama.

The republic managed to survive the awfulness.

Now? President Trump takes his cues from the dreadful morning program on Fox News. Or miscues. Like this one:

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump
122 vicious prisoners, released by the Obama Administration from Gitmo, have returned to the battlefield. Just another terrible decision!
7:04 AM - 7 Mar 2017
22,919 22,919 Retweets 92,857 92,857 likes

Actually, 113 of those prisoners were released by the administration of George W. Bush — a point that “Fox & Friends” didn’t specify in a discussion of the matter.

The reliance of the president on “Fox & Friends,” already well established, took on a bit more menace this morning, as he tweeted this:

Follow
Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump
James Comey leaked CLASSIFIED INFORMATION to the media. That is so illegal!
6:40 AM - 10 Jul 2017
27,785 27,785 Retweets 100,847 100,847 likes

That tweet appears to derive from a “Fox & Friends” moment from Monday morning, in which a news-reader said this: “Remember when James Comey testified the material he leaked to a friend was not classified? … Well, it turns out he actually may have broken the rules. A brand-new bombshell report accuses Comey of putting our national security at risk. According to The Hill, the former FBI director’s personal memos, detailing private conversations with President Trump, contained top secret information,” said the report."

Kill ‘Fox & Friends’ before it’s too late - The Washington Post (https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/erik-wemple/wp/2017/07/10/kill-fox-friends-before-its-too-late/?utm_term=.b4e00486ce95)

"We’ve already seen the damage that can be done by Fox News in the Trump era. In March, White House press secretary Sean Spicer approvingly cited a report by Fox News judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano indicating Obama had leaned on British intelligence agency GCHQ to spy on Trump. British officialdom decried and denied the report, causing an international incident and forcing a temporary disappearance by Napolitano from Fox News airwaves.

Left to its own devices, “Fox & Friends” could do far more damage, unless it’s killed."

You got that right. Rocky is a fake, but thinks that no one knows it. And the "boy" is just naive.
