The ‘Fakestream’ Media
Bryan Crabtree |Posted: Jul 19, 2017 12:01 AM
The most popular phrase of 2017 will likely be ‘fake news.’
(...)
The entire ‘fakestream media’ is missing the reality that the American people no longer depend them to tell them how to think.
 
21 November 2017, Caledon (ON) Enterprise, “Letter: ‘Noise’ is a language I DO understand,” pg. ?:
Yet, we get comment ‘ad nauseam’ on President Trump, which is completely one-sided, hateful and downright nasty. And still, the MSM asks why readership/viewership/etc. is down, or why they are also referred to as fake stream media?
 
Well, there is a saying that goes like this; ‘you made the bed, now you have to sleep in it’!
