Pope Francis, who in the past has not shied away from offering his opinion on U.S. politics, said in an interview published Wednesday that “spreading disinformation” is probably “the greatest damage that the media can do” and called it sinful.

Pope Francis compared the spreading of fake news to the desire to eat excrement.

“I think the media have to be very clear, very transparent, and not fall into—no offense intended—the sickness of coprophagia, that is, always wanting to cover scandals, covering nasty things, even if they are true,” he said, according to the report. “And since people have a tendency towards the sickness of coprophagia, a lot of damage can be done.”

The pope made the comments to Tertio, a Belgian Catholic weekly, which published the remarks Wednesday, according to Reuters.

Major websites like Facebook have vowed to crack down on fake news sites, but there is a debate on what exactly qualifies as fake news.

He didn't mention any network by name, but you posted a fake thread title. Just as bad as promoting fake news.
Poor Drafter.

Hillary Clinton denounced fake news during a speech on Thursday for retiring Nevada Senator Harry Reid.

Clinton called the rise of fake news an epidemic in her first speech since losing the presidential election.

"It’s now clear that so-called fake news can have real-world consequences," Clinton said at the Capitol.

A recent incident involving a gunman who fired multiple shots inside a Washington pizza shop has become a target of a fake conspiracy story.

Clinton addressed the issue saying it’s "not about politics or partisanship. Lives are at risk. Lives of ordinary people just trying to go about their days to do their jobs, contribute to their communities."

There's truth to that.
With the constant barrage of both blatant and subtle left-bias news sources, it's no wonder that conservative and moderates flock to the lone opposing viewpoint.
Likewise, Trump didn't get in because Hillary is a lying thief (although that probably tipped the scales in the final hours). Rather, Trump spoke to an America that is sick and tired of the status quo in Washington. The "constant barrage" of career politicians who do nothing but grow the government and give false promises and empty expectations.

Well it's good that he has pretty much done what a career politician would be doing since getting elected. Appointing Washington insiders and corporate executives to high positions in the government. fog
