This article has some good examples of fake news. The term confuses people, and lately it's been used to cover any article that omits points of view or cites facts favorable to one side. But, as bad as they might be, biased or slanted reporting and opinion pieces are not what is meant by fake news. You'll see that when you look at the examples in the article, (which you may have already seen)... They're so obviously fake, alarm bells should go off in the mind of any well-adjusted, well-informed person, no matter their political leaning. They're effective click bait pieces because even doubters will check them out.
