[aisle] "fake news" question

[Caroline Fox Anvick]

Hello all,
I teach a research class to high schoolers that discusses bad sources of
information (unreliable websites, biased information, fake news, etc.). I
love using examples of these bad sources - the more outrageous, the better!
My problem is that most of the examples I find tend to be from far
right-wing sources (Pizza-gate, birtherism, Kellyanne Conway's "alternative
facts," etc.). My own personal politics aside, I don't want kids who
identify as more conservative to feel like their team is being unfairly
picked on. Does anyone have some good examples of fake news-ish type things
from the Left?
Thanks so much!
