Americans think fake news is a big problem. But they can't agree on what exactly fake news is

Much of the American public is concerned about fake news, a new poll finds ― but people have widely diverging views about exactly whose fault the problem is.

Other questions show similarly widespread worries. About two-thirds of Americans say that made-up news has a big impact on Americans’ confidence in government, and 89% say they’ve often or sometimes encountered made-up news. About half say they’ve unknowingly shared fake information themselves. Opinions on fake news, like so many other issues, are substantially defined along partisan lines. Republicans, who hold far less positive views of the media as a whole, are also more likely than Democrats to call made-up news a very big problem, and to say they often come across it.
