But you just contradicted yourself. You said "60% of the news is fake, in your opinion." Part of your statement looks like a statistical fact, and part admits that it is mere opinion. Which is it?
There are two things in life, facts and opinions, and they are very different things. A fact is objectively measurable and observable. It is not subject to debate.
In contrast, an opinion is subjective. It is a mere belief that has not been supported or corroborated by objective evidence.
Now let's look at the media. Every single news story can either be corroborated by objective evidence, or it can't. There is no reason to have opinions on the subject. Either a news story reports a fact or it doesn't. Do most countries in the world support the Paris accord on global warming? Yes ... you can count all the signatories to the treaty. Has trickle down economics ever increased wages? No. The data about the national economy is out there. Do most people in the country support DACA? Yes, look at all the polls on the subject.
When repubs express an opinion that the mainstream media distributes fake news, then why do those same people reject fact-checking organizations who objectively look at the data?
