This article talks about how "fake news" wasn't something started by President Trump in 2017. More so that the term "fake news" was adapted by President Trump and used as a way to warn people about media he thought was non-beneficial to him and what he is doing. This article talks about how "fake news" began in 2004. According to the article, 2004 was "a must-read for the president's critics". Now, according to this article, Trump has started used the term "fake news" as "an anti-media project meant to tar news reports that he believed were unfair to him".]]> 2019-02-22 17:41:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_christopherson/mjimhxeuxjii/wish/334247353 rachel_christopherson https://padlet.com/rachel_christopherson/mjimhxeuxjii/wish/334251204 President Trump's tweets have a very large impact on our country. They have the power to sway people into believing whatever it is he is saying. Regardless if it is true or not, people will be getting their news from his tweets rather than unbiased new sources. Also Trump labeling people and events as "fake" is discrediting their situation and can be very insensitive. By claiming so many different things as "fake news," Trump loses his credibility and validity as a president. ]]> 2019-02-22 17:47:49 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_christopherson/mjimhxeuxjii/wish/334251204 gabriella_krause https://padlet.com/rachel_christopherson/mjimhxeuxjii/wish/334253236 https://twitter.com/search?l=&q=fake%20news%20from%3Arealdonaldtrump&src=typd 
1.  “Social Media Giants are silencing millions of people. Can’t do this even if it means we must continue to hear Fake News like CNN, whose ratings have suffered gravely. People have to figure out what is real, and what is not, without censorship!”
2. “A very big part of the Anger we see today in our society is caused by the purposely false and inaccurate reporting of the Mainstream Media that I refer to as Fake News. It has gotten so bad and hateful that it is beyond description. Mainstream Media must clean up its act, FAST!”
3. “The Trump Administration has accomplished more than any other U.S. Administration in its first two (not even) years of existence, & we are having a great time doing it! All of this despite the Fake News Media, which has gone totally out of its mind-truly the Enemy of the People!”]]> 2019-02-22 17:50:35 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_christopherson/mjimhxeuxjii/wish/334253236
