“We’ve had it with your narratives, your propaganda, your fake news.”

Dana Loesch (1978) American conservative political commentator

And we’ve had it with your tone-deaf assertion that you are in any way truth or fact-based journalism. Consider this the shot across your proverbial bow. In short? We’re coming for you.
