Since the US Government just named their VP as an international drug trafficker and placed sanctions on him and the report on him issuing passports to Hezbollah are real, I doubt this has anything to do with fake news....it's more likely the Venezuelan president playing up for his meeting with Trump
This isn't anything new...the press has been silenced there by the President anytime any protests or coverage of his pending ouster as President by the National Assembly.
Attempting to spin this as fake news fodder is ridiculous and shows the low intelligence level of trolls...might want to research and learn before just blindly following the pack
