    AFP is withdrawing this story. The author of the report has clarified that his figures do not represent the number of children currently in migration-related US detention, but the total number of children in migration-related US detention in 2015. We will delete the story.https://twitter.com/AFP/status/1196472197017153536 …

        Don't delete the story. Correct it to reference the correct time period. It's still important information.

        It's not truth they're trying to report, sadly. Otherwise, this would be the rational thing to do.
