Fake News --> Willful misrepresentation of material facts.
Mistake --> Accidental misrepresentation of any fact.
If Buzz published fake news, was their misrepresentation willful? What elements militate for thinking so?
From the Big League Politics rubric article:
You know what stood out immediately upon reading the rubric article? That Luke Rohlfing describes Buzzfeed's article, but doesn't have a link to it. Moreover,
I "Googled" using the headline -- "Kanye West Tweeted A Bunch Of Videos By The Trump-Loving Men’s Rights Activist Creator Of “Dilbert" and the Buzz article doesn't even appear on the first page of results! It's also not on the second page. Does the article ascribed to Buzz actually exist?
The only Buzz article that does appear is this one: "People Are Worrying That Kanye West Is Getting Radicalized By The Far Right." In fact, that is the article one is taken to by following the
twitter trail from the rubric article.
The article that Big League Politics claims Buzzfeed posted, "Kanye West Tweeted A Bunch Of Videos By The Trump-Loving Men’s Rights Activist Creator Of “Dilbert," simply does not exist.
