Facebook Removes Fake Article About Megyn Kelly From Trending Topics (theverge.com)

Less than a week after Facebook announced that it is changing the way it handles the Trending Topics section on the social networking website, a fake article about Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly was found trending on Facebook. The article, headlined "Breaking: Fox News Exposes Traitor Megyn Kelly, Kicks Her Out for Backing Hillary" comes from a conspiracy theory website, which has more than 200,000 likes on Facebook. Its Megyn Kelly story was the topic of discussion for many across the world. The article is obviously fake. The other cited source for this trending topic was an outlet called "Conservating101"

This is funny

It's hilarious that the persistent arch-enemy of the supposed strongman Trump is a mainstream "news" anchor at a TV channel allied to his party. And a feminine-looking woman too! You'd think it would make every neckbearded alt-right head explode.

And what dastardly tactic has she used to thwart and frustrate the glorious-leader-to-be? Not asking him soft enough questions.

Not entirely, People here hate FOX because they tend to be mindless cheerleaders of anything right wing and have a questionabe relationship with the truth. I hate it even though I tend to be fiscally conservative, Personally I lost any of my last respect for them the day they hired Rachel Marsden who is famous in my province for having her swim coach fired for sexual harassment for turning down her advances. Unfortunately for her(and the university), it turned out he kept the voicemails she left on his answering machine. But that's FOX they don't care about accuracy, only controversy that generates views.
