FAKE: Fox News Interviews Imaginary “Swedish Defense Advisor”
27 February 2017
Fox News brings on Nils Bildt, a supposed expert on Sweden, to tell Bill O’Reilly‘s audience that there was some legitimacy in Donald Trump‘s claim of a recent Swedish terrorist attack, but actual Swedish national security officials have never heard of him.
From daily The Morning Star in Britain:
Fake news isn’t new, you can ask Zinoviev
Monday 29th May 2017
“WE’VE always had fake news,” Stop the War convener Lindsey German told a Merthyr Rising discussion on the subject.
“It’s been around at least since the 1920s when the Zinoviev letter was invented and propagated in the newspapers to turn an election against Labour,” she said in the session featured on RT programme Renegade Inc.
And Alastair Campbell’s dodgy dossier claiming that Iraq could launch weapons of mass destruction against Britain in 45 minutes also came into this category, Ms German added.
Former British diplomat Craig Murray insisted that citizen journalism was “open to abuse” but no more than mainstream journalism.
Cardiff University School of Journalism lecturer Mike Berry reported on analysis of coverage of the banking crisis in newspapers and the BBC radio Today programme.
He pointed to the tendency to seek comments from sources in the City, pointing out: “These are not going to be people arguing for stronger reform of the banking industry.”
The White House social media director got in a bit of hot water after tweeting fake news.
