But in today's reality, that revised number is framed as fake news. Somebody has an axe to grind, and is artificially inflating the numbers.

I am totally baffled in the post-fact world.

It's only a post-fact world on a handful of media outlets.

Sadly, where I live, Texas, that handful of media outlets is what is viewed by the majority. Also, relating back to FB, it has become an echo chamber. Most people lock into one source, and once they are locked in, that information becomes gospel. They favorite/like/follow these sources, and that's all they will accept. Before I left FB, I was inundated with other people's posts from this handful of media outlets. People I know and consider friends, but this is what they are into. It was tiresome and baffling.
