There is no complete answer to fake news. Just grit your teeth and look at a variety of newspapers, even those which you would normally shun, plus look at some online sites. Then apply common sense. Then allow it to mellow a little.------------------------------"Besides, as the vilest Writer has his Readers, so the greatest Liar has his Believers; and it often happens, that if a Lie be believ’d only for an Hour, it has done its Work, and there is no farther occasion for it. Falsehood flies, and the Truth comes limping after it; so that when Men come to be undeceiv’d, it is too late; the Jest is over, and the Tale has had its Effect." (Jonathan Swift, 1710)
