From what I have seen, there is only one "Fake News"...

That is the FOX News Network.

Although they are only one, they are capable of reaching 30-35% of the conservative voters in this country. They are a propaganda arm of the Republican Party. They do not question anything that Donald Trump might say, regardless of how obvious the lies might be.

Most of the time, they do not choose to report or not to report, they simply ignore "news" that their viewers might not agree with. If it has no partisan or propaganda value, or might reflect negatively on Donald Trump or the Republicans, it doesn't exist in the news cycle.

They are the only "fake news".

In my opinion, more Americans need to hear this.

and their network of local news stations.
They put those Seb Gorka propaganda videos on a large number of local TV news outlets, plus scripted text for the local anchors to read.
