I need to point out a fact that needs to be made about the totalitarian dynamic that is taking place with Trump voters. I don't care what Trump is all about, because, he doesn't care about the people of the country. He only cares about control of the people of the USA.
This is the only President in history that has set up his own "You Tube" news network and tweets chronically to maintain the attention and control of his followers. This is not mentally healthy for the president or the country.
I think the mainstream media needs to measure the pathology that exists in the tweets of this president in relation to their publication of it.
Is there a professional definition of "fake news?" That would be a good place for the profession to start. I am sure there is a legal definition at the FCC, but, professions develop their own standards outside the legal definition of anything and act on ethical issues as well. The legal violations usually take care of themselves in many instances.

After visiting the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, (click here) U.S. President Donald Trump tweeted on Wednesday that he was treated warmly by the community and that the media's portrayal of protests is "fake news."
Trump's visit caused immediate controversy in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood as demonstrations, initiated by local Jewish activists, sang Jewish prayers and marched condemning Trump and demanding he denounce white nationalism before visiting the city.
The visit comes after the deadliest anti-Semitic terror attack in U.S. history where 11 were killed by an anti-immigrant shooter on Saturday.
After the visit, Trump tweeted: "Small protest was not seen by us, staged far away. The Fake News stories were just the opposite-Disgraceful!"...
