Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
The foreign ministry spokesperson statement was early Thursday morning in a press briefing. There were at least 3 different news agencies who asked whether China was it had negotiated with the US. The FM speaks in Mandarin and the translation is open to interpretation. Whether the FM said "fake news" in Mandarin, I am not sure.
After a meeting in the afternoon between Trump and the PM of Norway, a press reporter asked Trump about his negotiations with China. This reporter says "They're saying that it is 'fake news' that trade talks are happening." I'm not sure who this press reporter is, Trump calls him "Jeff".
As the other person pointed out, "Fake News" was a term that Trump hijacked to cover up for the fact that maga easily believe fake information. It's in the same vein as conservatives hijacking "trust the science" to be transphobic or hijacking "my body my choice" to be against vaccinations.
