Where did this thing come from? I have a theory.

The elite have total control over the media. They use it to control the plebs. Anyone who has been involved in a news event will probably have felt that what was reported was not that accurate.

So is 'fake news' an invention of the elite, created through panic over the information flow from social media? Not only the speed of information dispersal but the potential for actual uncensored truth.

Yes.
Fake news is spewed out by the lizards who wish to control the plebs. Don't forget that they also have access to the super fast interweb revelations 24/7 and have to constantly get their version updated to cloud the issues.
The Bible, Quoran, etc no longer cut it as a means of controlling the "God fearing" masses who now have WW interweb access.
A good example could be the £350 million and NHS on the side of that bus.
Those amongst us who knew what the craic was, knew that it was a deliberate attempt by a Sun Newspaper headline writer, to make an untruth look like a truth.
Problem is.
With the media outlets available today, it very quickly became the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth......... fake news..... by the opposition.

That's kind of the point. They hate the fact that ordinary folk can lie and be believed as well as they can. They are losing control of the lie machine.

I don't think 'they' are, quite the opposite, as evidenced by the introduction of laws that hold what's published as accountable as printed media was/is.

I mean just imagine. I could put out a fake story saying that Mrs May has called a snap general election. That would really hack them off.
 
Fake news nowadays is anything that doesn't fit your perception of reality.


Now turn your attention to the fact that the Paris Climate Change Accord does very little to tackle CO2 but tranfers $TRILLIONS to 3rd world countries.

Now turn your attention to foreign aid.

Not turn your attention to where the money is going ???

Perhaps time people woke up and realised they are being played every day, not all of the time but certainly on the "important" subjects.

Made me smerk when you see all the celebs dodging tax ... the same people who constantly lecture normal people how to live their lives.

There are two kinds of news.
On one hand you have Fox News, Breitbart News and news plastered on the side of a red bus informing the plebs that NHS will get increased funding of £350million per week post Brexit.
On the other hand you have fake news.

Not just me noticed that then. Seems to bring out the worst in people. Even some of my good friends are posting absolute nonsense, some of it quite offensive. As ever, the conservative majority who actually keep the country running will hold their silence and vote appropriately on the day.
