Deligitimizes...

Bloomingdale’s has issued an apology for selling a shirt that read “fake news,” and it has since removed the item from the department store’s floor.
Bloomingdale’s initially pulled the item from its sales floor after it was brought to their attention, by a reporter for local New York City station WPIX, that the article of clothing “delegitimizes” journalists.
Allison Kaden was shopping at a Bloomingdale’s store in White Plains, New York when she saw a mannequin wearing a shirt depicting the phrase, “Fake News.” The phrase was made popular by President Donald Trump, and is used to dismiss reporting that is characterized as false or sensational in nature.
It delegitimizes hard working journalists who bring REAL news to their communities. 
Comment: I disagree with  "Delegitimizes" any body, it actually repeat what the news media say all the time. This one is better than the other, sensational episodes, and incomplete ones.
