Comment: Trump and his friends certainly do have a self serving bias - hence cognitive theory applied to them.

However, that does not mean that the comments of fake news levied at the NYT, CNN, G&M, etc. are untrue.  In fact. both of these things very well could be true.  Yet, with the MSM we see this come out every day as true, as in true fake news..

Look, we all know the media is biased in one way or the other.  Some are biased to the right and some to the left.  But the amount of overt bias during this campaign and the printing of stories that did not have a fact to back them up by the NYT was just overwhelming.  

It would almost seem to me to be the case of the Fake News not liked being called Fake News.  And the NYT doesn't need to do this.  Just report facts.  Let the reader make up his  her own mind.  Believe me, we can do it.  At least yours is an opinion piece so we know that your words don't have a shred of fact.  But hey, it is entertaining.
