My biggest concern is who determines what is fake news? Seems as though people are now shouting "fake news" if a story doesn't fit within their belief system or agenda.

I don't think a voting platform is the solution either because you then get the herd mentality and it can so easily be gamed.

I am not even convinced that "fake news" is the issue. I am more on the side that our society has lost its ability to truly evaluate what they read or have any real level of critical thinking at all. If more of our society questioned what they read or even took the time to truly read things, I am not so sure this would be an issue. Rather, so many simply go by what an excerpt says in their Facebook or Twitter feed or what their followers are saying.
