LONDON -- The 日本 成人 映画term "fake news" feels already like a bad hangover from 2016, when bogus websites published false or hyper-partisan news -- such as the conspiracy theory about Hillary Clinton running a child sex ring inside a Washington D.C. restaurant.

But we, in the UK, truly believed we were safe from such a craze exploding across the pond.
How naive we were.
Thursday morning, Jeremy Corbyn, leader of the opposition, rebuked persistent questions from a BBC journalist about his possible resignation by saying that the BBC "is reporting fake news".
"There's a story going about that you set a date for when you're going to quit as Labour leader," asked the journalist.
"That’s in the ‘Imadeitupyesterday.com’," Corbyn replied.
When pressed, he continued:
"I’m really surprised that the BBC is reporting fake news. There is no news. Listen, I was elected leader of this party. I’m very proud to lead this party."
His reaction caused dismay on social media:
