Timothy Snyder writes: Hitler and the Nazis found a simple slogan they repeated again and again to discredit reporters: “Lügenpresse.” Today the extreme right in Germany has revived this term, which in English is “fake news.”

FACT CHECK: FALSE

Fake News was revived by the DEMOCRATS who were scrambling to smother the evidence in JOHN PODESTA's emails that he has an unhealthy interest in CHILDREN, which led us to his Fundraising associate James Alefantis whose Instagram account was a pedo horror-show

Well, as for Germany the article speaks nothing but the truth. It’s a far right term and only used here by the far right.

Only the translation might be troublesome, since it actually means „lying press“ which only has the same MEANING as „Fake News“.

But undoubtable Id say is, that the term became the most popular when Trump started to use it and therefore also became a rather far right term in the states.
