“Ironically, nowhere is the collapse of objective journalism more on display than with the so-called fact checkers. The ‘fact-checkers’, Hell-bent to prove Trump wrong, have become just another tool of advocacy journalism,” conservative strategist Chris Barron told Fox News."

"advocacy journalism"

Do we really need to invent a new word to describe this?

But what's wrong with?

"Propaganda"
"Information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view."

Or
"Yellow Journalism"
"Presenting little or no legitimate well-researched news while instead using eye-catching headlines for increased sales. Techniques may include exaggerations of news events, scandal-mongering, or sensationalism."

Here's the Wiki definition of Advocacy Journalism. [It sounds like a "newspeak" to me.]

Advocacy journalism is a genre of journalism that intentionally and transparently adopts a non-objective viewpoint, usually for some social or political purpose. Because it is intended to be factual, it is distinguished from propaganda. It is also distinct from instances of media bias and failures of objectivity in media outlets, since the bias is intended.

Some advocacy journalists reject that the traditional ideal of objectivity is possible in practice, either generally, or due to the presence of corporate sponsors in advertising. Some feel that the public interest is better served by a diversity of media outlets with a variety of transparent points of view, or that advocacy journalism serves a similar role to muckrakers or whistleblowers.

Newspeak

"Ambiguous euphemistic language used chiefly in political propaganda."

You tell me, what's going on here? TM
