I'd like to see a study for where the most misinformation comes from. Who/what spews the most lies? Trump? Fox News? CNN? Shouldn't there be some serious repercussions for stuff like this? Like, I can't believe that debate moderators don't just interrupt these people with a "uhhh, well that's just not true."

How can the leading Republican candidate consistently and purposefully misinforming the voters not be one of the bigger election stories? Shouldn't it be grounds for being booted from the race at a certain point?
Here you go

In a normal world it should matter but it doesn't seem to yet. His bluster is good for TV ratings and it appears the media will ride out his crazy train as long as possible. Check CNN right now, I'd bet he's on the top stories in one way or another, he always is.
