Does anyone have a non biased non politically charged definition of what FAKE NEWS is? I had thought that it referred to the presentation of material that the writer or presenter knew was false but was disguised and presented in such a way as to fool the reader that it was a legitimate news story.
But in the last 24 hours we see the term applied to a news story which parts could be immediately verified as truthful although the content that could be verified was not intended as false.
So what is your unpolitical charged definition of what FAKE NEWS is?
So what is your unpolitical charged definition of what FAKE NEWS is?
InfoWars, Drudge, Salon, etc.
How is it possible for Drudge to be considered fake news, considering their format and all?
InfoWars, Drudge, Salon, etc.

"Fake News" in my mind, would just be a news story circulating that is false.
Examples:
Clinton Campaign Chairman John Podesta Involved in Satanic 'Spirit Cooking' : snopes.com
Did Donald Trump Appoint Sarah Palin as a Science Advisor? : snopes.com
Or any conspiracy website out there like InfoWars.
If it's not true and verified, it's fake. That leaves rumor, innuendo, unsubstantiated allegations, and the stuff written on public bathroom walls as fake. And without all of the latter, CNN has nothing to report. Weird, huh?
Why FAKE and not simply incorrect?

If it is verified, it won't be incorrect.
I'm going to agree with you on this one. I think there's a lot of confusion about what is fake. I think fake is when stories are actually fabricated, where the story is just made up without any semblance of truth.
Does the person authoring the story have to know it is false?
Fake News is news that is false...News that is not properly verified, based on heresay typically for politically, fame or slanderous reasons
Drudge? :lamo
