Fake News from Left-leaning Sites

I misunderstood his argument, but we had a discussion about the ACA is a civil manner and both lamented the lack of data based reasoning in politics these days. Even the "real news" these days is filled with anecdotal, hyperbolic, fallacious bullshit and it would just be nice to get away from that.

It's all sensationalism, no matter which side is presenting it.  Gotta reel them in with some shocking headline, tagline, broadcast promo...  News was bleeding money when everyone only told the facts, then someone started doing human life stories, discovered they could garner a bigger audience, sell more expensive ads, yada, yada..
