Yes I am covertly trolling ... It is fun to mock the "sky is falling" hysteria on the liberal-leaning QZ.
... But you are probably unaware of the link between CNN, Buzzfeed, an ex-British spy, and fake news.

Right, because it's only happening here. link
People are literally going to die if the legislation is repealed.
But since when do conservatives give a fuck about anyone but themselves?
Sure - but the tweets are exactly as they were written. Unless you think tweets inherently have a left wing bias, and that health care is something only the left wants.
And hilarious that you mention a fact checking website that has to say this about Fox:
"Fox News Channel has been accused of biased reporting and promoting the Republican Party and has been deemed the least accurate cable news source according to Politifact."

Indeed, that's pretty bad journalism on CNN and Buzzfeed's part.
But Trump - the king of fake news - is literally the last person to vilify anyone else for doing what he has been doing for the last couple years. Fact checkers have found that his overall quantity of statements during his campaign amounted to about 25% truth. Countless tweets of his that were pure bullshit got hundreds of thousands of retweets. He literally created facts as he pleased, and could change them from day to day as he pleased.
Facts are meaningless to him and the majority of his base. He's a sociopath who built his road to the white house by removing facts from politics and replacing them with feelings and fear. He knows exactly what he's doing - he's not only blurring the lines between truth and myth, but by accusing others of doing the very act he has mastered, plenty of (stupid) people won't consider the possibility that he himself does it as well.
Trump is no fool.
