Bn

An abbreviation of the word "been" because typing two more letters is much too laborious; often appears in text messages and chat rooms.

BN is an acronym for "bad news" that typically appears online or in text messages. It is often used in reference to a person's own bad news that he has to share or actual news from journalists.

If you see the BN acronym, you should brace yourself to hear something disheartening. You might even want to turn off your TV or phone so the bad news won't reach you and therefore will not be real. For some people, BN is too much to take so they just call it fake news.
