    Fake news is a foreign government making lies in the media, no?

    That's what Hillary and her supporters say, so it must be true.

    yet you call it fake news with absolutely no evidence to back up the claim. edrogan spoke it undeniably. lies? maybe but not fake news. trying to engage in a discussion here now leads to lies, misdirection or name calling. futility defined.

    Sorry, but I think your post is just silly.

    The White House denied the dog's OP. I would believe that over the awful guy from Turkey.

    I would believe Trump might have said he was sorry the incident occurred, which is not the same thing as an apology. Any thing like what happened is regrettable, to say the least.

    The White House denied it in my OP.

    So change the title of the thread to something like "WH denies..."

    Fake news. By definition.

    I rarely ever use the term "fake news," but in this case, your article is the very definition of it.

    But it's not fake news. The title of the article clearly says Erdogan said Trump apologized. That is true, Erdogan did say that. That's not fake. The article also said the white house is denying it which is also true.

    Two sides of a story does not = the entire story being fake.

    All of the "fake news" the Russians supposedly spread had headlines, too.

    What Erdogan said isn't true - that's the real news.

    The flat response "fake news" when you don't know if it's actually fake news is even more disturbing, frankly, than the idea that the media is leaking manipulative articles.

    It's amazing how quickly people have become brainwashed.
