Journalism is dying, and has been for decades, largely because its mostly FAKE NEWS....

Nothing offensive about the shirt...

Nobody can deny that “fake news” exists (i.e. The Onion). Anyone who’s offended probably thinks the shirt is about them, and can’t even convince themself that it’s wrong. If they were confident in their actions, they’d be able to blow it off as referring to “The Onion” or “Fox” or some other entity, and not them or their employer.

Sometimes the truth hurts and it’s best to avoid it.

This FAKE journo-less does not see the irony in her complaint and the 1st Amendment. The company can sell or not sell the shirt. When the agenda driven FAKE news is perpetuated upon us, we are told to shut up and take it.

That jacket/outer shirt looks awful! That’s the first thing I notice.

I'm surprised the Trumps haven't trademarked it. They could sell a ton of them at his rallies.

No shit. Don’t like it, don’t buy it. Same with “the news”.

Wasn’t “Fake News” originally a liberal put down? At least that’s the way I remember it. But yes, Trump/conservatives definitely turned it into what it is today; a spot on description of CNN/NY Times etc.

I am surprised too. These things would sell better than MAGA hats.

Someone like Barstool Sports should have these on their site. They sell the heck out of Roger Goodell clown shirts.

Everyone is so sensitive. Now we have to worry about offending journalists?

Yes it was! They hate the fact that it's been turned against them. They had planned to use that phrase against us!
