Fake news is a living thing and as all living things, it grows.

Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?

A: To get to the White House Press Conference.

He’s probably an ancient ancestor of Jim Acosta.

Applying to become Trump’s new Press Secretary

I’ve heard of pressed duck, but pressed chicken?

Good one!

There is nothing like a little mindless panic to needlessly stir things up.

Chicken Little obviously works for Fox.

There it is!

If it bleeds; it leads. Let’s hear it for Don Hendley’s “Dirty Laundry.”

You wouldn’t think a chicken would work for Fox!!

Clearly the chicken is Einstein Cortez with her the world is ending in 12 years story. Gonna ride the train to Hawaii

There are actually some Chicken Little climate change “experts” that are saying in six years the sky will fall on the human species. I except climate change and its human cause aspects, but not human extinction, not for several generations. We are a very adaptable species.

Will someone please tell me why there is so much UNWANTED political talking here, when there is not even a hint of politics in the comic???

Exactly. Mainstream news media.

I have to say that the press does bring up subject matter to spark controversies and cause debates…..

Wow – this one is SO clever! “The biases the media has are much bigger than conservative or liberal. They’re about getting ratings, about making money, about doing stories that are easy to cover and keeping us in a uproar.” ― W.W. Adams

It does — or did — sell newspapers.

(Now it sells advertising.)

I find it amusing, disturbing and sad that everyone here seems to think that the “other side” has a monopoly on fake news.

“Flake news! Flake news!”

They cry foul! Fake newsers. They are discusting and unpatriotic.

Jim Acosta of CNN cameos a BC cartoon

I didn’t know CNN’s Jim Acosta Did cameos in cartoons

Pouring over these comments makes me think nobody ever heard of chicken little.

Nails the press.

director of our emergency management committee

Wait, your equating this to Jim Acosta who’s reporting, which may be over zealous at times, is based on truths instead of our fearless leader and his blathering overlords on Fox evenings (and Russia) going after the real criminals- Hillary Clinton and her evil email plot and caravans of rapists and drug dealers?

If the sky WAS falling, I’d want to know about it.

Without all the media hype there would be no climate change crisis. We only believe there is one because they feed it to us and we lap it up. Check the actual facts and there hasn’t been very much change at all, possibly no more than there’d be if the planet had no humans.

The partisan replies are way off. Other than PBS, the job of ALL press is to report the sky is falling, so they get more ratings and can charge more for ads for soap! If they weren’t alarmist, no one would watch. Regardless of petty “sides.”“Hey, Things Are Generally Okay” is a headline no one has clicked on, ever.

The sky is falling. Sell sky.

Really? No need for the press? Let’s go listen to some Muzak
