Aren’t you going to miss my blogging about my fake news............. The liberal famous CNN made a column asking to abolish the term of what we call “fake news"




          The writers of the names Hossein Derakhshan and Claire Wardle claimed that fake news is, “not only self-defeating, but it also oversimplifies a very complex problem” and it devalues the expression that has “become meaningless” over the past year." (Flood, 2007) The writers claim that the term fake news is now just being abused by stating it's fake because they don't like what they read or heard. In the Fox News article the writers from CNN state that the Americans associate the "fake news" with CNN because of President Trump. The article is warning the Americans to be aware and careful with the term of fake news. CNN has decided to create an Anti-Trump liberal media since President Trump bashes the network of posting fake stories. An example in the article that states how President Trump deliberately told one of the CNN Senior White House correspondents to his that he's the fake news. President Trump has encouraged Americans to have a contest between the most famous news channels ABC, NBC, CNN, and CBS to see who publishes the most corrupt news should win an award a trophy for fake news. CNN has established a ban on the frequently used term of "fake news" but has not associated with President Trump in the ban. But everyone is curious if he will have a response to them establishing the ban on the term of "fake news."

Facebook is still battling about the fake news... possibly loosing the fight



     In my earlier blogs, it has been noted that Facebook has been having trouble with fake news. Last month it was revealed that the Russians have spent about $100,000 on false advertising on social media during the 2016 election. Facebook has been trying to put guidelines on advertising. But according to The Guardian has failed in trying to stop fake news. It states in the article that Facebook has become more of a PR campaign. The CEO of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg tried to stop the fake news by partnering up with a partner with Poynter's International Fact-Checking Network (IFCN) to have an eye on their advertising to see if they were real or not. Facebook has been posting warning banners about the fake news but no actual evidence of them. In the article the author states, ""Fact checkers said they had queries about how often the tags were placed on articles, what effect they had on the content and what sites were most often targeted -- but said that Facebook had not provided information," reports The Guardian. (Krishna, 2017) Reports recently are stating that Facebook has been trying to get out of false news advertising and posting, but it seems as if the company is losing the battle.
