A comment on Fake News Challenge. Parent comment
I've addressed this elsewhere, but there is definitely cases where this can be done.
No, Tom Cruise is not moving to Buffalo, Missouri[1].
No, there is no attempt by lawmakers to legislate the disposal of unused semen[2].
Etc, etc. Some of these are satire, but some are just complete deliberate fakes.
This is a different class of problem to "OMG Hillary is a Nazi/OMG Trump bought Pizza" opinion spam.
