Fake News

Fake news are all around the internet and we receive them every day, this is an example of one of them:

Just when you think that President Donald Trump can’t get worse, he proves you wrong,
Recently he said that he didn’t believe the official death toll from Hurricane Maria which hit Puerto Rico. The death toll has been recorded at about 3,000 people. However, Trump has declared his government’s relief mission was a resounding success and only about 18 people died.
Trump supporters also back the president. According to an Occidental Public Polling survey, 70 percent of Trump supporters believe the media inflated the death toll to make the president looked bad.
“The liberal media hates Trump and will do anything to make the president look bad,” said Don Callen, a Trump supporter from Tampa, Fla. “I reckon the media faked the numbers.”

This fake new was made to make people hate Donal Trump as you can see. People makes this kind of fake news probably to make a bad opinion about certain politician.
