“I remember when President Obama made an announcement shortly before the [2016] election…‘We’re going to need to curate information in this wild, wild west media environment.’
I had never heard that suggestion in my life before. Now it’s accepted. Everybody wants their news curated.
…I knew there must be a motive behind that, because the President doesn’t make new ideas willy-nilly, just off the top of his head. And from that moment on, the fake news effort to undermine President Trump and his supporters…and all the fake fact-check groups that exploded and some new nonprofits that do this—that all was born in that very short time period.
…Suddenly, the public wanted their news fact-checked, wanted their favorite news outlets to censor stuff that they didn’t think other people should see.” Sharyl Attkisson
