On October 24-25, 2018, [[fake news]] falsely reported that nearly a dozen fake bombs that were mailed to [[Democrat]]s were real, when they were not. Well into the second day of the news story it was still virtually impossible to separate the fact from fiction in the news accounts.

Non-political fake news is designed to attract internet traffic, attention, or sales. Political fake news is designed to push an agenda, typically the [[liberal]] one. A recent example of fake news is the uncorroborated, obscene sexual allegation published by ''[[The New Yorker]]'' as part of the [[Kavanaugh smear]], which even liberal news outlets criticized.
