Fake News Awards go to.....

Well it's finally here. This should stir up the media like a hornet's nest.

This is actually pretty funny, #2 is the only one on that list that comes anywhere close to actually being important, and some of these awards are in if themselves fake.

Then you have this imbecile of a president who is in record lying about things he said on tape and whether or not it was raining.

The fact that this is *all* they found over an entire year is telling.

That's it? So much yelling about how the media is always lying, and that's all they could come up with?

It's almost as if Trump's claims of how he's actually doing a good job and it's just fake news that makes it seem otherwise, is in itself fake news.

This was not nearly as stupid as I thought it would be.

Still pretty stupid though.

Real News posts retractions when they're wrong. Fake news does not. Did Hannity or Limbaugh ever issue a retraction about their statements that the Sandy Hook massacre was a hoax?

@joshrmeyer:

A dumb ceremony only his sheep would attend. We should hold one of our own for worst president in recent history and give Trump front row seats. One for each butt-cheek.

He IS an innovator though. Never in my life had I heard of a way to ignore actual events by digging my head in the sand, plugging my ears and yell out, "Fake news! Fake news! Fake news!"

Apparently it's very effective for some. If you yell out, "Fake news" loud enough, you JUST MIGHT fool yourself into believing that it isn't real! This meme will undoubtedly be remembered for a long time!

Even Wikileaks took the piss out of Trump on this.

Hey I've seen this post before on Political Gamers. Did KHAndAnime write it?

@perfect_blue:

What happened to KHAndAnime, anyway? He was like, top sheep of the Trump supporters here.

lol..

gop.com

Would it be so much work to include something from the link?

And how many of these stories were retracted or corrected later on?

oops

When a complex website is broken the best thing to do is blow it up and start all over again-then sue the culprits and use the proper team!

@tryit: It works fine.... Probably too many people trying to access it before. More Yahoo fake news.

you mean like the ACA site when it first opened?

@tryit: Don't know what that is... What does that site have to do with the fake news you posted? Stay on topic.

lol...

you dont know what ACA is? Afordable Care Act...Obama Care

What a twat.

@tryit: Affordable? Yeah an $8.50/hr employee here has to pay over $400/month just in premium... Cheapest option available. Don't pay it? Ok get fined. Worst decision I've seen a president make in my lifetime.

ok now you are changing the subject.

when the what you call Obama Care site went up (by the way Acts are never named after a president) it got slammed, it went down, they had technical issues

just

What a shit topic. Should we really allow this excuse?

Alright, time out.

Does anyone know the story about why the RNC is hosting this? Is the party itself going in on the "fake news" stuff, is it somehow obligate to host this, or what?

I ask because this is the kind of stuff that makes the GOP look like the Breitbart party.

Idiotic, he didn't actually include the outlets a significant majority of Americans actually see as fake news or untrustworthy,

40% of all voters think Fox News should be the winner of the first annual Fake News Trophy.

Yeah, I'm not going to trust a source coming from the main GOP website. I might as well listen to some Nazi propaganda at this point.

same here

I didnt trust them when Bush was in office but was willing to give benifit of a doubt but I still thought they were bat shit crazy.

now I know without question they are all absolutely nuts
