I use to preach this so much to Redditors. I truthfully think that CNN / DNCs push to coin "fake news" (and Trump's hijacking of the term after that got into mainstream use) was one of the most monumental mistakes in the last 200 years. I am not using hyperbole either.

They used the term hundreds of times but it wasn’t quite catching on. Trump says, “YOU ARE FAKE NEWS!” and it blew up after that. I member.

They were sloppy with their projection after Trump.
