I am not criticizing Biden for this, he's allowing unaccompanied minors into the country but turning away minors who arrive with their parents. I know they have to be kept somewhere to keep them safe from human trafficking, sickness, hunger, etc. My criticism is of the way the media flips the narrative depending on which tribe is in power. Fox News does it all the time, but some of you weirdos get upset when anyone points out that the rest of the media does it too. They are sugarcoating this. Did you know they're going to reopen the same detention center in Homestead, Florida that was in the news in 2019 for child sex abuse? Did you know they're putting kids in tents in Texas? The media doesn't have to suck up to Biden, they just need to do their jobs. If these kids are held in bad conditions (I'm not saying they are) I want the media to report it honestly. Their job is to speak truth to power.
The media flips in a lot of ways but is in no way comparable to Fox News. I remember all the coverage of the drone attacks under Obama, I remember reading plenty of critical things during his years.
The media is reporting on bad things with Biden too. That's how we know about the Florida detention center, because the media is reporting it.
Not saying the media is perfect, it's not. Not saying they are always unbiased, their not. But comparing the entire media to Fox Entertainment which is an actual propaganda platform is not at all fair. Remember, Fox Corporation is legally an entertainment company, and Fox News is just part of them, broadcast on a channel sandwiched in between all their non-news entertainment propaganda.
Look at all the times they went to court to sue for the right to blatantly lie to their own viewers, and force their employees to knowingly lie as well. It's a world apart from even MSNBC which is the worst of the MSN in my opinion.
They are all bad, but to different degrees. I trust NPR over MSNBC, and wouldn't ever trust Fox.
