"fake news" was what the media came up with first. Trump turned it back on them. "Misinformation" is the new, more successful attempt, that "authoritative," and the "fact checking" system. It's bullshit if you're aware, but probably more compelling if you've never experienced life outside the plantation, so to speak. In that case, you don't need to even think, or provide actual rebuttals, just say "because authority says so."
