Fake news is made-up news. Until this year it's not something that has been terribly open to nuance. Now the working definition of fake news is "news that paints trump in an unflattering light."
Fake news is made-up news with a heavy propaganda value. It's made-up so that the public perception can be manipulated, so that some agenda can be advanced.
