And yet we see the general readers swallowing fake news as if it were truth, and even retorting that they don't care if it's fake, it's the kind of thing those people would do.
This is out of the scope of news and into the scope of propaganda, and it does matter.
They are very rarely "actual fake news", but usually untruths presented in a way that is impossible to falsify. At least to my experience. Perhaps you could cite a news item that survives but is proved to not have happeend.
