by zanya
"Dad, can you help me with this question?"
Now eleven, Judy's scores were top of her class.
Dad savoured his beer after a gruelling day at Media Ink.
"Okay, Judy," dad answered, "shoot."
"Fake news, Dad."
Dad sat bolt upright.
" I couldn't get it in class today."
Dad stroked his greying beard.
"Is it lies, dad, or truth? Do you guys write fake news in your paper?"
Dad flinched.
"Judy, better ask Mom."
