Donald Trump claims that fake news is a major problem in the media.

Infact verdict: Mixed (47/100).

The claim that Donald Trump considers fake news a major problem in the media is supported by multiple sources. PolitiFact has addressed Trump's use of the term 'fake news,' rating it as a 'Wrong use of word,' indicating that while Trump frequently uses the term, it may not align with the traditional definition of fake news. Web evidence shows Trump has consistently criticized media outlets, labeling them as 'fake news' and 'the enemy of the people.' This ongoing narrative is well-documented and corroborated by reliable sources such as Wikipedia and Courthouse News Service. However, the subjective nature of what constitutes 'fake news' and the lack of a universally accepted definition make it difficult to assess the factual accuracy of the claim beyond Trump's personal opinion and rhetoric.
