A technique used by dishonest journalists where they exaggerate, sensationalise, slant or cherry pick for the sake of making headlines or propagating a certain agenda (usually) without ever actually lying. Journalists also sometimes cut, rearrange or take out of context what has been said by a spokesperson, sometimes using questions to invoke the desired response. The BBC, NBC and CNN love fake news. It is their bread and butter.
Using this term for satirical or alternative news should be avoided as this can dilute its effectiveness in calling out real fake news. Although similar, fake news shouldn’t be confused with misinformation as that refers to the spread of unproven, unreliable or otherwise poorly researched information rather than the purpose driven distortion of facts that is fake news.

Refers to large technology companies that have significant impact and even control over elements of our daily lives. Facebook, Google, Apple, Amazon and Microsoft. Also Youtube(owned by Google) Netflix, Whatsapp (owned by Facebook), PayPal, Twitter, Spotify and Tencent. Big tech is watching you and selling your data to advertisers. They control what you see and hear online and can sensor anything they don't agree with. They filter search engine results to cater to their agendas and ideals. They want you sign up to their monthly subscriptions and use their payment services. They want you to have a digital ID (ID2020) so they can track your every move, medical history and social credit score (Black Mirror - Nose Dive) etc. The only way to escape big tech is to go off-grid.
