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."

I think this is a great post and I actually wrote something similar on mine. I talked about how CNN wrote an article on how Trump thinks he created the word "fake news". Trump is a very vocal person and he will always have a response to something he doesn't agree with. "Fake news" has always been a thing, however it seems to be a popular topic as of late.
