I strongly believe in Fake News without saying most of it is inaccurate... just strongly misleading.
"Anonymous sources say..." Yeah sure they probably did say it, but are they reliable? I think journalists need to start applying codenames for anon sources so that we can understand whether news is coming from many people, or one disgruntled desk jockey spreading tabloid gossip.
"Republican Senator speaks out against Trump" oh look it's McCain again.
"Sources familiar with Comey's thinking..."
