Can you give us some examples?

Re: "Fake News"
Faith writes: Fake news is telling lies. I don't think that is what they should be doing.
I, for one, don't pay much attention to commentators. My impression of Trump comes entirely out of his own mouth. When he claims to have won the biggest victory since Reagan - which is factually false - should I conclude that he's lying? Or that he just didn't bother to check his "facts"? Or that there's a vast left-wing conspiracy to photoshop the video of his news conference? What would be "real" news in this example?

Re: it's hard to walk with only right feet ...
Faith writes: By the way, I recall taking one of those quizzes here a few years ago, or more than one maybe, that places you somewhere in a quadrant on a graph according to your political views, and I always end up very near the center, maybe in a Rightist quadrant but not far into it.
That's because the quiz forces you to actually think about issues instead of just spouting rhetoric.

It's what makes the right wing possible.

Re: SOTUS use of Navy Seal ...
Faith writes: It's possible to manipulate it and it has been claimed that it is manipulated to discredit Trump.
Again... nobody needs to manipulate anything to discredit Trump. Trump's own words discredit Trump.

Re: SOTUS use of Navy Seal ...
Faith writes: Only in the minds of leftists.
No. In any mind. Trump calls the news "fake" when much of the "information" he spouts is fake. He tells blatant falsehoods, like he had the biggest electoral college win since Reagan. Either he lies or he just doesn't bother to check his facts. In cases like yours, it doesn't matter which because you don't care about the truth. You'll swallow any lie he tells and any fake "information" that he spews.

Formerly, you weren't free to marry the person of your choice. Now, in some jurisdictions at least, you're freer than you used to be.

If any news about Trump was favourable to Trump, that would be news.
