You've got it completely backwards. The ones who introduced the term 'fake news' were CNN, and that's a fact. They introduced it before the elections, and it was extremely ironic they of all people introduced it: At that time there were constant inaccurate reports about Trump (like it still is now). They let the people believe Clinton would win with a landslide, never ever showing a balance or objectivity in reporting. It was as one sided as it gets.

Trump took this term from CNN, and flipped it on them, because of the irony of a "news" channel blaming their online competitors of 'fake news', yet constantly reporting opinions laced with lies, instead of reporting fact based objective actual news.
