Some Conservative media take stories from corporate media, slap their own as-inflammatory-as-possible headline on it then bury the link to the original anonymous MSM source down in the 14th paragraph, usually as a TEXT LINK so you have to CLICK to see where they got it from.
A lot of people who *think* the Fake News Corporate Media doesn’t influence their views anymore because they only read Conservative media outlets couldn’t be more wrong about that.

2/3rds of Conservative media are just taking Fake News reports, slapping their hot take on it...
...which means they end up ENDORSING Fake News based on the Corporate Media’s often-wrong-but-never-in-doubt-anonymous-officials-familiar-with-the-matter.

They are playing a shell game with audience.

It’s dishonest and it is bad journalism.
