The following is from the US president’s twitter;
“The Lamestream Media is doing everything within their power to foment hatred and anarchy. As long as everybody understands what they are doing, that they are FAKE NEWS and truly bad people with a sick agenda, we can easily work through them to GREATNESS!”
So, why dose he keep saying fake news? It seems demonstration/protest and looting are actually happening and nothing is fake news here.
What is he trying to say by calling it fake news??

He keeps using the term "fake news" for pretty much anything that isn't positive for him.

He is not saying that the reports of demonstrations are fake reports; don’t be confused. He says the “media” are incorrectly assigning blame for the anarchy. He is frustrated because it is quite easy to manipulate minds by slanting the news reports to cause one side to seem innocent, and to cause the other side to appear evil. Dishonest reporting is fake news; it is taking advantage of simple minds.

@ladybug Thank you for the response. But still I’m not quite understanding what he meant.
So in this current occasion, who are those slanted media trying to depict as innocent or evil? It seems quite neutral to me about what media reports about this demonstration and looting.

@Tony63 There are comments (not facts) that police are racists, which of course is evil. Law enforcement is depicted as an enemy of the innocent people who have a right to loot and burn.
This is a recurrent theme in fake news, that racism can be stopped by anarchy.
Facts are facts; honest news reports the facts: angry people burn property and loot stores.
Opinions are not facts. When opinion is reported as FACTS, this is fake news: police who try to stop them from looting and burning, are doing so because they are racist = This is an opinion, not fact.
