      Most of the fake news sites are free because they need as many poor people to read their trash as possible to make a profit. They also censor people because don't allow people to comment on their sites. Just look at Fox and NY Post.

      +Brad Fortin No need for a citation. Turn on CNN and within an hour there will be at least one fake news story. In this context I'm using the term "fake news" loosely as CNN doesn't present completely false stories but they are worded and phrased in deceptive ways. To me, those are just as bad.

      CNN is biased, sources like Breitbart are downright fake. There's a very substantial difference between saying something true with some bias, and completely making up things.
      I'm pretty sure that the MSM is statistically far more likely to be not-fake than, say, Breitbart or UltraFreedomEagle.com. It wasn't the MSM who read a police report saying "firecracker accident" and reacted by publishing "Migrants burn down Germany's oldest church".
