“Subscribe to your local newspaper. Donate to your public radio and TV stations. If you read 'The New York Times' or 'The Washington Post' or 'The Guardian' or the 'Chicago Tribune' online, subscribe to them. In point of fact, journalistic information is not free. It is dear--in every way. If you complain about fake news but don't pay for real news, you are part of the problem.”

“Well, we are certainly experiencing a heyday for irrational discourse and 'alternate facts.' Donald Trump, Alex Jones, Devin Nunes, Ann Coulter, Dinexh D'Souza, Kellyanne Conway, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Rush Limbaugh, and the entire Republican congressional caucus inhabit a world in which down is up, up is down, and science is fake news. It is hard for some people to have faith in American institutions when they are being told every day that climate change is a hoax, that Obama is a Kenyan, that the United States government brought down the Twin Towers, that the grieving parents of murdered Sandy Hook kindergartners are "crisis actors," and that Hillary Clinton is splitting time cooking up uranium deals with the Russians and running a child-sex ring out of a pizzeria. Not to mention every word that tumbles from Donald Trump's lying mouth.”
