Not true either, it was originally the left who pointed out the "Fake News" from the right. Instead of trying to better themselves, the right took over the term, and misused it to bolster their propaganda campaign.

despite what you've been led to believe the mainstream media (Does not include CNN, MSNBC, etc.) is far more accurate than what the right relies on (Fox, Breitbart, Newsmax, etc. Which are much more like mirror images of CNN and MSNBC). All media has its bias, but the mainstream media is fairly accurate in their reporting. I'm sure you can find many examples where they were wrong, and called out on it. You'll say "but they made a lot of noise and then quietly retracted it when nobody noticed", and I'll point out that the right does that more than left (Seth Rich on Fox, example), but even more-often, the right just keeps repeating their lies.

It starts at the top, like Trump repeating the election was stollen after we now know he knew better. Fox, and all the others kept on reporting it, even after they knew it was a complete lie.

They ARE a propaganda machine for the right. And effective at it.

This WAS ABSOUTELY predicted, and what Biden is doing is not responsible for today's inflation. (I'll grant you, a lot of what he's doing will be responsible for tomorrow's inflation, not giving him a pass.)

Sorry, but what you've presented so far is suggesting you are in fact ill-informed. That is not meant to be an insult, just saying that you may not understand the cause, affect and cure of inflation.
The cause of THIS inflation - more than anything else - has been Biden's war on fossil fuels, combined with the economic lockdown of 2020 which disrupted supply chains. The democrats OWN both of these items.
