    “Fake News” was an Alt-Right Op that the left swallowed Hook, Line, and Sinker.

    1. Call everything you don’t like “Fake News”
    2. Intentionally put out an obviously false story. In this case it was “The Bowling Green Massacre”
    3. Watch as your enemies do your work for you, thinking they “gotcha” and start using the term “fake news” helping you delegitimization all news sources, even legitimate ones.
