After reviewing many broadcasts, Sinclair Broadcast Group's viewers decided to criticize them about a story that they lied about; "Trump wanting to fire special counsel Robert S. Mueller, III" (Peter Stevenson/ Washington Post). Trump has allegedly responded to their stories via Twitter, stating that News Channels should stop putting out fake news. He proceeded to add on other news channels, saying that they are also known for putting out fake news for more attention. While reading the article, I was in shock. Who would put out false information? What was going through their minds? The situation caused conspicuous events to occur, including "Democrats withdrawing campaign ads from all of the company's news stations, in response to the fake news".
