All you really have to do to fight fake news is to teach kids critical thinking.

The problem is that people are thinking biased news = fake. That is not the case. Bias is okay, in fact it's good IF you can be objective.

I'm going to clarify seeing as people aren't understanding. Every human has a bias. A reporter is supposed to report the truth. Not opinion.

2. These days the news format is essentially all about getting 2 'left' and 2 'right' to shout their opinions at each other about something.

It's about being able to separate your bias (OPINION) from the truth (FACTS). Reporters who cannot do that are not doing their jobs properly

Or that ridiculous news is fake news. Just because it's sounds stupid doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Well with Lord Dampnut the ridiculous has become pretty normal. It's a weird world we live in.
