One of them is The National Report which advertises itself as "America's Number 1 Independent News Source"
"Obviously the headline is key, and the domain name itself is very much a part of the formula - you need to have a fake news site that looks legitimate as can be," Montgomery says. Beyond the headline and the first couple of paragraphs people totally stop reading, so as long as the first two or three paragraphs sound like legitimate news..."
But why go to such trouble? The answer is there is big money to be made from sites by The National Report which host web advertising..."
"We were specifically targeted by the Facebook changes in their news feed algorithm. They've drowned out our stories from being shared and from being liked, and I have no doubt that they are doing the same to other fake news sites.
