Fake news isn’t just made up news. News taken out of context is also fake news because it twists the truth by not telling the whole the story. It leans toward the bias of the media. The media likes to sensationalize their stories to attract readers and viewers.

I have spent four decades in public service focused on one mission: protecting the people of Los Angeles County. I grew up as the son of immigrant parents; my dad was a laborer and my mom was a domestic worker.
