"Fake News is the Enemy of the American People"

In the Liberal Blog "Crooks and Liars", the Author argues how The President of the United States is nothing but a "Perpetual Victim". President Donald Trump, attacked the media in a CPAC Speech where he claims, " Fake News Is The Enemy Of The People, They are the enemy of the people. Because they have no sources. They just make ’em up when there are none.” Trump claims that the media dropped off the word "Fake" and completely rearranged what he had said, but the author thinks otherwise since the media did no such thing. The author of the article believes that Trump is just making things up, and is portraying himself as a "Perpetual Victim".  He feels that Trump wants to discredit legitimate news sources and favor the propaganda outlets that usually give Trump "Good Stories". He states that Trump is nothing but a "petty, two-bit, banana republic despot."

I can not help but agree with the author and what he believes about Trump, but I can not help to argue that Trump is not the first person to try and portray themselves as a perpetual victim of the media. But at the same time I cannot help but agree in Trumps statement "Fake news is the enemy of the American people", because the media only shows what they want to show.  They do not show the big picture, they show what the people want to hear, and most times the do not show the real important information but instead information that in a couple of years might not matter. And that is what I feel is wrong with our Government, we believe what the media tells us but don't realize that some times it really is "Fake News".
