In part I of this series we looked at the advent of “fake news” as a distinctly understood entity. In particular we looked at how the fake news narrative went largely unchallenged in America about all things – both inside the country and outside – for decades, despite the advent of conservative talk radio and internet news sites like our own.
“Fake news” is a rather ubiquitous term that has come to be used in US and international media.

According to the report, arms sales to the Middle East now account for more than a third of the global trade.
