What makes you think there is a line?
I am beyond the post editing time window, so shall extend the thought here.

What I meant was that fake news and propaganda are not distinctly different things, more like different descriptions of similar phenomena.

In my view, advertising is often pushing right up against whatever legal/socially acceptable boundaries separate it from the fake/propaganda definitions.

Many layers and tentacles of 'less truth' and 'more harm' to be wrestled with.
