Come on. Sheryl Attkisson is now a reporter for Sinclair - the local news equivalent of Fox. Her integrity was compromised at CBS News and it's now non-existent.
Her talk is a carefully crafted piece of propaganda (which is consistent with her career as a right wing ideologue who is quite selective of who and what she chooses to investigate). The reality is that, for about 2 weeks in 2016, the term "fake news" was used to refer to the sort of manufactured lies that were spread by Russian bots on Facebook ... before the right wing coopted term to refer to actual news stories from legitimate news organizations, and to this day Trump and the right wing routinely dismiss true stories as "fake news".
(And of course some right winger was quick to downvote this.)
