Fake News 

The President derides "fake news," but investigative reporting has revealed that partisan organizations are creating hundreds of phony web news sites.  They are intended to spread disinformation under the guise of local reporting.  They aren't doing any shoe-leather work.  Computers fashion the stories taken from press releases and other sources.  It's a sneaky trick and as far as is known, Russians have nothing to do with it.  PR practitioners need to be aware of these false sites and avoid them.  They have already gained a bad reputation and as time progresses, it will grow worse.  It seems that foreign powers aren't our worst enemy after all.  It is us.
