Trump: The FAKE NEWS media is the enemy of the American people!

[abaris]

Consider the following - if your most committed enemy agrees with you on something, doesn't that mean it is more real?

In my case, no. But I'm not a good sample, since I was always used to check every bit of news I got exposed to. It's my job for the better part of 30 years, working as a journalist. I have an opinion but I often refrained from posting something on here because I wasn't sufficiently sure that it was true. But by the same token I'm well aware that most people don't go through these motions. They have an opinion and when they find someone - even more so if powerful - agreeing with them, they take that as fact.
