H Based on your reading of the article, what can you infer that Tungate means when he says in this passage that he might have become a "fake journalist"?

"'You are very fake news.'

When I heard about Newseum's controversial T-shirts—now withdrawn and hopefully recycled—I felt an odd shiver of guilt. I had to step back and ask myself why. And I came to the alarming conclusion that, despite being a member of Britain's National Union of Journalists for around 30 years, with a press card tucked neatly into my wallet, I may have become a fake journalist."

a. Through his acceptance of advertising as a source of income for news media and journalists and his lack of alarm at or action about the growth of native advertising and advertorial content, Tungate has become a "fake journalist" by association.

b. As a journalist, Tungate has accepted the need for advertising, so he has written the kind of advertorial content and supported the native advertising that pays the bills for him and the companies he works for, thus becoming a "fake journalist."

c. Although he is aware of the growth in advertorial content and native advertising, Tungate knows he is not a participant, so he is using the expression as a tongue-in-cheek way of referring to himself, playing off the title of the article, "Make Media Great Again."
