The proliferation of the term "fake news" will ultimately do more harm to our society than any of the actual fake news out there.  You could see it in that embarrassment of a press conference, you can see it right in this comments section.

People need to realize that just because an article or opinion piece says something you don't personally agree with, does not make it "fake news".  Actual "fake news" is a kind of article alleging wildly unsubstantiated claims that have either been debunked, or have no possible method of verification.

So, please don't scream "Fake news!" anytime you read something you don't agree with. Actually think about what you are reading and the source.  You are allowed to not agree, but you shouldn't just immediately jump to these dangerous, and ultimately false conclusions.
