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"

    Since when is CNN left?

    So you mean the external renaming to 'Clinton News Network' was only because the letters matched?

    but CNN has a more conservative bias these days.

    Only to those on the Marxist side of the left side of the spectrum.

    It's been pushing right ever since it saw the obscene profits Fox made duping it's audience.

    Must be doing so pretty slow given for how long Fox has been making money hand over fist.
