Frank read an article that said there was less fake news in printed newspapers and he disagrees. Hearst and Pulitzer built their empires on “yellow journalism” and many newspapers were founded specifically to be partisan and, to this day, have the word “Democrat” or “Republican” in the names.

FOOTNOTE TO FRANKS PHILOSOPHICAL STATEMENT ON "FAKE NEWS."
How did Time Magazine develop? Henry Luce, the founder of Time Magazine in 1923, used to collect news stories from all around the world and then rewrite them with a bent to his (Luce's) personal views. So, fake news has been around for a long time. (So, in the name of another Harvey (for those of you who are old enough), "And now you know...the rest of the story!")

And from Frank's (current) backyard, how about the infamous “Manchester Union-Leader” under William Loeb who made Attila-the-Hun look like a liberal!
